President and founder of the Next Generation Action Network (NGAN) Dominique Alexander, who is a representative for Karmelo Anthony's family, defended removing Austin Metcalf's father from a press conference in support of Anthony, indicating that he didn't know if the man "was gonna put out a" gun. Alexander cut himself off before saying naming the weapon. Anthony killed Metcalf in a dispute over seating at a high school track meet.
"The Anthony family didn't even know that Austin's dad was even in the facility. They didn’t know that Austin’s dad was here until he was actually removed by DPD. One of our security people asked him to move back — he looked back at him like he was entitled or like he didn’t have to move," Alexander said.
"We didn’t even know who he was at the time," Alexander said, noting that a member of the press said that the man was the father of Metcalf. "I said, I know you’re lying. Like, what? He can’t be here. And so what we initiated is making sure that we secured the facility," Alexander continued.
