DEARBORN HEIGHTS, Mich. -

Protesters and civil rights groups are calling for justice after a suburban Detroit homeowner fatally shot a 19-year-old woman on the porch of his home.

No charges have been filed after authorities said Renisha McBride, of Detroit, was killed by a shotgun blast to the face early Saturday in Dearborn Heights. According to police, the man told investigators that he thought someone was trying to break into his home and accidentally discharged the gun.

McBride's family said she likely approached the home to seek help after getting into a car accident nearby.
"He shot her in the head ... for what? For knocking on his door," her aunt, Bernita Spinks, said.

Earlier this week, police said they requested a warrant authorizing in the case. The Wayne County prosecutor's office sent the request back to police Wednesday for additional investigation before making a charging decision.

"We will not be able to make a charging decision until the requested work has been completed," the prosecutor's office said in a statement.

A vigil was held Wednesday at the home. About 50 people rallied Thursday outside the police department.
The homeowner hasn't been arrested or named by police.

A funeral for McBride is scheduled for Friday.

McBride's death has drawn attention from civil rights groups including the NAACP and the Rev. Al Sharpton's National Action Network. Sharpton offered his condolences to the family of McBride before expressing concerns about the justice of the situation, in light of the shooter's claim that his actions were justified.

"We want this case tried in the courts," Rev Charles Williams II said. "This is a clear case of murder; it is a clear case of innocent life being lost as one calls for help."

The civil rights activist believes that if McBride's killer isn't tried in court, this type of incident could continue to occur in the state of Michigan. He called for community support in a rally that will seek justice for the death on Saturday.

"Renisha McBride deserves justice today," Williams said. "We must also make sure that justice is upheld when it comes to those who are shot down on porches and shot down in communities for asking for simple help."

Renisha McBride Update: Teen had .218 blood alcohol content when she was shot to death by Mich. homeownerA toxicology report has revealed that the 19-year-old had a blood alcohol level of .218 at the time of her death - more than twice the legal limit for driving...there was a "strong possibility" McBride had marijuana in her system, but that a re-test was recommended to confirm.

Of course the shooter was white...

Almost all the black killings are from other black creatures... that's ok, apparently even for them.

A 2007 special report released by the Bureau of Justice Statistics (http://bjs.ojp.usdoj.gov/content/pub/pdf/bvvc.pdf), reveals that approximately 8,000 — and, in certain years, as many as 9,000 African Americans are murdered annually in the United States. This chilling figure is accompanied by another equally sobering fact, that 93% of these murders are in fact perpetrated by other blacks....

To put these number in perspective, recall that over 6,400 U.S. service men and women have been killed in Iraq and Afghanistan combined over the course of a decade-long war fought in those nations. During the Vietnam War, which lasted nearly 13 years, some 58,000 Americans were killed — nearly 13 percent of whom were African American.

Extrapolating black-on-black crime data reveals that, by comparison, approximately 100,000 African Americans have been killed on our own streets at the hands of other African Americans in roughly the same stretches of time. It is difficult to find anyone who would white-wash these mind-numbing statistics.
