Former Grand Rapids police officer on trial in Lyoya murder
The prosecution opened by saying Schurr shot and killed Lyoya in the back of the head, a climax to their confrontation in April 2022, which began as a traffic stop over a license plate. Among the witnesses they called on day one was Wayne Butler. Video in court showed him on cell video standing close to Schurr and Lyoya. Nervously, Butler took the stand to talk about what he saw.
