Associated Press—A community group plans to protest after investigations by the Justice Department and the city of Pittsburgh couldn’t prove three officers broke the law or department regulations when they beat a black arts student last year.
The Alliance for Police Accountability says it will ask Allegheny County District Attorney Stephen Zappala Jr. to take another look at the case of Jordan Miles during Friday’s protest. Zappala is already reviewing the case, including the federal and city findings.

The officers say Miles resisted in January 2010 when they claim he was acting suspiciously and thought he had a gun, which the officers claim turned out to be a soda bottle. Miles says he was accosted because he was a young black man in a high crime area _ and denies having a bottle, much less a gun.
