Cuyahoga County Tim McGinty has been invited to meet with Pastors United, a group of Cleveland-area pastors, to speak about the Tamir Rice shooting and the community's reaction to the officers not being indicted, McGinty's spokesperson said.

It was announced Monday that the officers involved in the shooting of the 12-year-old boy would not be criminally charged after a grand jury reviewed the case.
