New York City police apologized for mistakenly accusing a teenager of a fatal shooting at a Brooklyn parade, then failing to retract the false allegation for nearly five months, despite knowing it was incorrect.

The police posted photos of Camden Lee, 16, on social media and said he was wanted for the shooting. Only after five months did they admit they were wrong.
