A statement released Wednesday evening by attorneys for Tamir Rice's family says the family has viewed a surveillance video of the shooting and thanks the city for releasing it publicly.
The video shows Tamir carrying an airsoft gun that shoots non-lethal plastic pellets. Police say the officer who shot him fired within 2 seconds of pulling up in his cruiser.
The family says it hopes police and prosecutors thoroughly examine the shooting. It asks for the community to remain calm and protest peacefully.
