Correction: Family of Walnut Creek police shooting victim hires famed Bay Area civil rights attorney John Burris

A story published June 10, 2019, about civil rights attorney John Burris’ decision to represent the family of Miles Hall, who was shot by a Walnut Creek police officer on June 2, misidentified the weapon that police allege Hall was carrying at the time of the incident. Police said that Hall had a crowbar. The story was updated shortly after publication to reflect the correction, but initially restated the error in noting the update.
