Riviera Beach
A 16-year-old Palm Beach Gardens high school student is accusing a Riviera Beach Police officer of breaking his jaw. Laquan Wright's attorney is holding a news conference this morning to address the incident.
Attorney Richard Ryles says Wright is the victim of an unprovoked attack that happened Saturday, August 2. The teenager claims he was walking to his grandfather's house last Saturday night when an officer stopped him. At the time, Ryles says Riviera Beach Police were looking for a suspect. The officer approached Wright. Ryles claims the 16-year-old did not resist, but the officer body slammed him.
Laquan Wright has several injuries to his face, neck and jaw. In fact his jaw was broken in two places. The teenager can barely talk, and has his mouth wired shut
