ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. — An attorney for two Native American brothers pulled from a Colorado State University tour earlier this year has demanded the school make policy changes, saying Thursday that campus officers violated the teens’ constitutional rights by patting them down without any suspicion of a crime. Police said a mother on the tour had called 911, saying she was worried because the Grays were “real quiet” and wore dark clothing. Meanwhile, Colorado State University has taken only “small steps” after promises to change protocols for campus tours, the ACLU said. “Although they were never suspected of a crime, the Gray brothers were detained and searched by CSU police officers,” Hinger’s letter said. The brothers, both Mohawk, are originally from upstate New York and graduated high school from Santa Fe Indian School in New Mexico.
