COLUMBUS, Ohio The younger sister of 16-year-old Ma’Khia Bryant called 911 a few weeks before Bryant’s fatal shooting by a Columbus police officer, saying the girls had been in a fight with each other and she wanted to leave their foster home, records show.
“I don’t want to be here no more,” the girl told a police dispatcher, adding that she’d been in the home more than a year.
The 911 call was one of more than a dozen placed from the Columbus foster home since 2017, most by Angela Moore the home’s foster mother seeking help with foster girls who had left without permission or didn’t return after being out, according to documents and 911 calls obtained by The Associated Press.
