A Black man was found dead after he told his mother he was being chased. Police said there's ‘no reason’ to suspect foul play.

Rasheem Carter's mother said that before he disappeared in October, he called in a panic to say white men were chasing him in trucks and hurling racial slurs.

The family of a Black man who was found dead in Mississippi after he warned his mother that he was being chased by white men hurling racial slurs demanded a federal investigation Monday after local authorities said they had “no reason” to suspect foul play in the man's death.

Rasheem Carter, 25, was reported missing Oct. 2 after his mother said he had sought help from police and frantically called her to say white men in three trucks were pursuing him. That was the last day Carter's family heard from him.

himself. "no reason to suspect foul play" - are they calling it suicide or a drug overdose?
