ST. LOUIS • State Rep. Bruce Franks Jr. and the family of a man shot by St. Louis police in 2013 are calling for a new investigation into the shooting.

Franks, a leader in the mass protests over police conduct in St. Louis this fall, held a press conference with the family of Cary Ball, 25, on Wednesday, calling on St. Louis Circuit Attorney Kim Gardner to lead a new investigation into Ball’s shooting .

“We don’t feel like our questions were answered,” said Ball’s brother Carlos Ball at Fifth Baptist Church in the JeffVanderLou neighborhood.

“There are still a lot of questions surrounding what happened to my brother that night. Police say one thing, the witness statements totally contradict everything they said.”

Cary Ball was shot the evening of April 24, 2013, after he crashed a car at Cole and Ninth streets, near the Dome at America’s Center, at the end of a police pursuit. He had fled a traffic stop. Officers shot him 21 times. Nobody else was hurt.
