BATTLE CREEK, MI (WNWN/WTVB) â The family of a man shot to death during a police confrontation last September has filed a wrongful death lawsuit against the City of Battle Creek and Calhoun County as well as local police agencies.
The Battle Creek Enquirer says the $15.5 million suit was filed Wednesday in U.S. District Court for the Western District of Michigan, Southern Division and it alleges 22-year-old Andrew Blowers was killed in an unjustified use of deadly force by two officers from the Battle Creek Police Department and a deputy from the Calhoun County Sheriff Department.
Blowers was shot following a pursuit which ended on Logistics Drive in the Fort Custer Industrial Park just after midnight last September 5.
