Brown (OH-11) issued the following statement about the killing of Akron man Jayland Walker: “I join with so many in the Akron community in mourning the death of Jayland Walker, who was revered as ‘a neighbor, brother, and nephew’ and, I’m sure, so much more,” said Rep. Brown. “I am gravely concerned about the killing of a young Black man at the hands of police, especially as it happens all too often across this country. As we await further details regarding the shooting, I urge the City of Akron and its Police Department to conduct a thorough and transparent investigation to fully inform Mr. Walker’s family and our community and ensure accountability.” | 1 | 2026-03-30T01:40:41Z | 2026-04-06T18:20:25Z |
