UDR

Mr Shannon's cousin, Kenneth Smyth, 28, an off-duty UDR soldier, was shot near Strabane, County Tyrone, while on his way to work in 1971.

“We deny Mr. Oseni was wrongfully evicted,” said UDR’s attorney, Darcy C. Osta.

Superior Court against the apartment complex, the Capitol View on 14th, and its parent company, Colorado-based UDR, Inc., alleging the building’s management discriminated against him based on race.

“But, because he is a young Black male, UDR management treated him like he was a culprit.”

Neither a spokesperson nor an attorney for UDR responded to a request for comment.
