An attorney representing Ali Osman's family said they had a separate, private autopsy conducted Thursday morning.

Smith said preliminary information indicated Osman had been shot at least three times in the neck, though it was possible a fourth bullet struck Osman in the same place. Smith also held up plastic bags of rocks a little bit larger than gravel, and said they were some of the projectiles Osman had thrown at officers and their cars before they shot and killed him.
Police tried to contact Osman and told him to stop, but he continued throwing rocks at them, according to Bower. Then officers shot Osman. He was taken to a hospital where he died, Bower said. He added that taking 14 days to release a critical incident briefing video with edited snippets of body-camera footage was unacceptable.
“What kind of message are we going to send to everybody if it’s OK to shoot over throwing rocks at them,” Alyousfi said. “Police are trained to do better — to know better. I just think that wasn’t done here. Something needs to be done.”
