From the article: Nakala Moore said she snuck her phone to Aderrien and asked him to call her mother and the police after the father of her other child came to the family's home and became irate, but police haven't released any information about what led to the shooting -- and Nakala Moore said her son didn't understand why the officer shot him.

"His words were: Why did he shoot me? What did I do?' and he started crying," she said, adding that she saw blood come from her son's mouth.

Capers was placed on administrative leave while the shooting is investigated, but the family's attorney said city officials must explain why the officer hadn't been disciplined for past alleged misconduct, including using a Taser on one of Moore's previous clients while he was handcuffed during a December 2022 incident.

"What are you waiting on? Someone to actually die?" Moore said. "An 11-year-old almost died. By the grace of God, he is alive. The people of Indianola are not going to wait until somebody dies."
