The father of a black teenage boy fatally shot in the head while in a car that was driving away from a policeman has sued the Dallas-area officer for excessive force over the incident that has stoked simmering debate about racial bias in U.S. policing.

The lawsuit filed at a federal district court in Dallas on Friday by Odell Edwards seeks undisclosed damages from former Balch Springs police officer Roy Oliver for shooting his son Jordan Edwards, 15, with a rifle, court papers showed.

It also named Balch Springs, a predominantly black and Hispanic city about 15 miles (25 km) from Dallas as a defendant. The lawsuit accuses the city of failing to properly train Oliver, a person plaintiffs described as having a short fuse and a history of abusive behavior toward citizens.

Oliver, who is white, was charged on Friday with murder for the death of Edwards, described by friends and family as a good student and athlete. His two brothers were in the car with him and watched him die, an Edwards family lawyer has said.

“Defendant Oliver shot Edwards in the head in plain view of his brothers ... with total disregard to the safety of others,” the lawsuit said.

City and police department officials were not immediately available for comment. Neither was a lawyer for Oliver.

Hundreds attended a funeral for Edwards on Saturday, held about a week after he was fatally shot. His family has asked that any protests be put on hold to give them time to grieve.

Oliver, 37, surrendered on Friday, hours after an arrest warrant had been issued and released on bond. He has not spoken publicly about the event.

The lawsuit alleges the two brothers were subject to racist comments, and the brother who sat beside Edwards when he died was handcuffed at the scene but not charged with any crime.

“(The brother) was not given any explanation and could not understand why he was being treated like a criminal,” the lawsuit said.

The Balch Springs Police Department said on Tuesday it had dismissed Oliver for violating department policies. Police originally stated the car with the teens was moving toward the officer at the time of the shooting, but said later that a police body camera showed the car was moving away from Oliver when he shot at it.

My guess is they get mad because the counter slogan ignores what has been happening to black men at the hands of American Justice. An unarmed black man is much more likely to be shot dead by a cop. Some cities like Manhattan abused the "stop and frisk" programs. And the degree of black incarceration is a scandal.

I incorrectly identified the Black Panther activist Bobby Seale as Bobby Steel in post 43.

Um, no. You are altering what I said. They are offended because they feel the bumper sticker counter slogan is a distraction from careful and thorough examination of their complaints.

Nobody makes that claim.

More in raw numbers perhaps but not so in percentages when you consider that blacks comprise only 13% of our population.

The chief complaint is the treatment of blacks by police.

It is quite common in tort law to sue the organization who is represented by the agent who committed the deed. That is the principle of agency in liability law.

it is just that you are focused on real or imagined abuse by the police and can't be bother with the thousand murderd by other blacks. Do you realize that you are so focused on the evil white man that you can't see the real threat.

You asked why BLM get upset when confronted with the slogan "all lives mattered." I tried to give you an answer. You didn't like the answer so you attack the messenger claiming I am "so focused on the evil white men" Are you losing your cognition, Man? It is the BLM who have the complaint against the police; I only report it to you. If you don't like it complain to BLM. It is their grievance, but I do find the history of the denial of racist brutality kinda interesting.

Do you think we do not have a long history of police brutality in America?

Do you feel there is no justification for the Supreme Court's Ruling in Miranda?

I'm not sure that it is accurate to describe Bosco's comments as "embarrassingly shallow and ignorant".

Bosco's comments are always "shallow and ignorant". No one familiar with his posts would suggest that either he or his readers are 'embarrassed' by his comments. Bosco revels in his shallowness and ignorance, to the extent that for him his shallowness and ignorance are sources of pride.

Perhaps 'depressingly/mind-numbingly/stupendously shallow and ignorant' (as Bosco's comments invariably are) might be more accurate.

Now who is distorting.
When you engage in this kind of debating all you are doing is agreeing with them but you what a way out when you get cornered.
There has been police brutality, I never said there wasn't.
I have said nothing about Miranda, forget smokescreens.
I still say when you go after the department in a case like this it is counterproductive. It encourages coverups if they still get burned when they go after a bad cop.
You know as well as I do that tort law is totally screwed up.

A VERY, VERY high percentages of murder criminal cases against cops are rarely resolved against the officer, especially when a black man is the victim and even if the victim is shown on video running away when shot in the back.

Tort law is their only alternative.
