Ricky Ball’s fami- ly has filed a notice of intent to sue the city of Columbus. The city con- firmed Wednesday evening that it re- ceived the letter on Tuesday. Ball Ball, 26, was shot and killed by former Columbus Police Officer Canyon Boy- kin on Oct. 16, 2015. His family may sue the city for wrongful death. The Mississippi Turnage Bureau of Investigation conducted a criminal investigation into Ball’s death. MBI sent its findings to District Attorney Scott Colom at the beginning of June. Colom has since sent the case to Mississippi Attorney General Jim Hood’s office and requested a special prosecutor. Mose Lee Sudduth, a Vernon, See RICKY BALL, 3A
