Activists Demand East Lansing Police Chief Removal

A billboard in Frandor now calls for the removal of East Lansing Police Chief Jennifer Brown, citing concerns over police use of force and racial disparities. Community Activists for Justice stated the sign will remain until they see policy changes or resignation from multiple organizations supporting such action. Interim City Manager Annette Irwin acknowledged free speech rights but noted that specific incidents are under legal review. Separately, East Lansing Police Department confirmed a shooting occurred off-campus around 12:26 a.m. on November 1 at the intersection of Linden Street and M.A.C Avenue. Authorities reported between three to seven shots were fired while searching for a suspect who allegedly emerged from a vehicle with a gun.
