Amir Locke Update.

The court has ruled that no charges will be filed against the Minneapolis police officer for the no-knock early morning fatal shooting of Amir Locke, son of troupe alumnus Andre Locke, at the apartment where Amir had been sleeping. The apartment had been forcibly entered by the police despite not having a warrant issued for an arrest of Amir.  

Amir’s father, Andre Locke, was a key six-year member of the Explosonic Rockers Street Jazz Theatrical Troupe, beginning during the summer of 1984, when he was living with his mom on Chicago’s West Side.

Besides his many Explosonic Rockers’ performances throughout Illinois as well as numerous other states, including Hawaii, Andre attended Lincoln Park High School in Chicago while living for a year with troupe director Ray Moffitt in west-suburban Maywood.  

In 1993 the Explosonic Rockers morphed to the MWAH! Performing Arts Troupe.
