Elijah McClain: Colorado grand jury indicts five over Black man’s death

Attorney general: three police and two paramedics face charges

23-year-old died after being stopped on suburban Denver street

Colorado's attorney general said on Wednesday that a grand jury had indicted three police officers and two paramedics in the killing of Elijah McClain, a Black man who was put in a chokehold and injected with a powerful sedative two years ago in suburban Denver.

The 23-year-old's death gained more widespread attention during last year's protests against racial injustice and police brutality following the killing of George Floyd in Minneapolis.
