WARREN, Mich. (WXYZ) – A second family is seeking $100 million in liability from Warren police a month after a crash that claimed the lives of two best friends.

Around 5 a.m. on September 30, two police officers in a Warren police vehicle crashed into the Dodge Durango. DeJuan Pettis and Cedrick Hayden Jr. were driving near the intersection of Schoenherr Rd. and Prospect Avenue.

“They took my son away from me so soon” said Charisse Brown, Dejuan Pettis’ mother.

Fieger Law announced shortly after that he will file several lawsuits against the city of Warren and two police officers who were involved in a crash that killed two men last week. The first case was filed on behalf of Cedric and his family, and on Tuesday they filed the other lawsuit on behalf of DeJuan.

“These men died tragically because of the reckless conduct of the Warren Police Department.” said James J. Harrington IV, an attorney at Fieger Law.

Both families took time Wednesday during a news conference to hold Warren police accountable.

“We’re here to clear this up. We’re here to talk about it because this happens all the time and police need to be held accountable,” Harrington said.

Harrington says the family has also not received a call or apology from the department.

“It’s heartbreaking to even live each day knowing that we will never see him again, that we will never get a call again, and that we will be devastated forever.” Shakearia Maye, mother of one of Pettis’ children.

Warren police declined to comment on the lawsuit.

The Macomb County Sheriff’s Office has taken over the investigation, which is ongoing. They expect an update in the next two weeks.
