U.S. Court of Appeals Case No: 19-2800
U.S. District Court for the Western District of Missouri - Kansas City
[PUBLISHED] [Gruender, Author, with Colloton and Grasz, Circuit Judges]
Criminal case - Criminal law. In light of the totality of the
circumstances, the police officer had reasonable suspicion that defendant
and his companion were suspects involved in an assault; the men matched
the generic description of the assailants, they were in close temporal and
geographical proximity to the crime, their clothing matched the
description of the clothes worn by the assailants and they were walking
away from the site of the crime; as there was reasonable suspicion to
justify the stop, the officers also had reasonable suspicion to conduct a
frisk.
