#Breaking: multiple sources say 3 @AuroraPD officers under investigation for taking inappropriate photos at a memorial for #ElijahMclain. Aurora PD tells @cbsdenver "An IA is in progress regarding photographs that were taken at that location". Statement coming soon from APD Chief
My sources say the photos were disseminated within @AuroraPD to other officers and showed the officers reenacting the hold that preceeded McClains death. Question :were the officers on duty and in uniform? Its hard to believe this story could get worse. It just did. @CBSDenver
I have asked @AuroraPD if they will be releasing the photos and identity of the officers who posed. Official response: 'Since it’s an active IA I can’t give you any other details. We have a statement that should be coming out shortly from the Chief.'
Statement from @AuroraPD: IA case completed tonight, officers in question on admin leave. Entire investigation including photos etc will be released to public.
@AuroraPD statement notes that existence of photos was reported by an officer.
