Well don't leave your kid alone in your car. That's what get. Maybe she won't make that mistake with the next one she plops out.
Play stupid games, win stupid prizes.
People complaining a out the police not doing their jobs, but the last several years have proven that when they do their jobs, people throw a fit, riot, burn buildings and want to defund the police. You can't have it both ways people. You created this.
Gotta learn these P.O.S. thieves a lesson. 2 less losers wasting my air
If I told police someone stole my car they would probably arrest me over a flower….
No thanks I'll get the car back myself.
So what is the function of the police? They sure seem to be like lazy school custodians with pensions.
12 years old. Already a thug sad story sadder life
What color was the thief?
12 year old learned the hard way. Teach your kids better ..
I stumbled across my dad's stolen work van 1 hr after it had been stolen sitting in front of a drug den. Called the cops. They showed up 20 min later. Knocked on house. Talked to the guy. Arrested him, and Found keys in his pocket. My dad had been warming it up when it was stolen. I would bet my next paycheck this guy hadn't called police and opened fire out of rage. I see a court case in his future.
How would anyone know who fired a gun first? A hard lesson was learned by the car robbers, maybe the friends who ran away will change their lives behind what happened.
I'm sure it wasn't a "white" child….
Bunch of cowards to leave a child dying in a car and running.
Kid probably didn't even have a gun… Probably one of his "members" showing him the ropes who got him killed.
I blame the 12yr's parents.
#(ck) common knowledge
That’s what he gets for not getting off, common sense
A dead 12 year old car thief! That poor ki… I wonder what I should have for lunch.🥱
BLM was a bad idea
By anyone's standards
except crimminals ✌🏾
taken to the hospital? he should have been dumped in the tr@sh
Oh, no.. anyways.
Start charging these teens guardians!!!! I bet there would be less crimes committed by teens if the parents were also held responsible. I bet the 12 year old family will say it is law enforcement's fault their child wasn't doing nothing wrong where he was needed to be shot. Well he was shooting at law enforcement so they shot back to protect themselves. Why couldn't he NOT be committing crimes against anyone, why wasn't he worried about his grades and doing well in school isn't that like 6 or 7 grade at 12 years old? It's a shame he wasn't at home with his family instead of stealing someone property they bust their butts and work hard for.
Who is he?
So I was in Northfield right by the Bass Pro parking lot on Sunday. We went shopping by Macy’s and other places near by there. When we came back later in the day, my car was broken into. They took off the lock cover and the car was unlocked. Looks like they looked through some of the compartments but didn’t steal anything or the car. I guess they couldn’t start the car and left. Looking back I don’t know if it was connected or not. But it was around the same place and time. I feel bad for the kid though he was so young to get involved in that kind of stuff.
Even though this is heart breaking, the outcome has to be accepted by the family of the 12 year old. In life you get what you choose. Many kids and families will have to know that stealing cars can have a serious consequence and they shouldn't blame anyone other than their own choices when these kinds of thing happen.
Soooooooo tragic*
Got what he deserved
Play grown man games you win grown man prizes.
No future crimes from that one.
I wouldn't rely on the police for anything. Not going to feel for any person whole decides to steal someone's car for a joyride. No matter their age.
Mama don't let your boy to be a car Thief let be lawyer and doctor lol
Got what he deserve justice well he was 12 so what he should be home playing video game
Or playing toy car not stealing cars
Me at that age was watching cartoons
Now kids change now hanging with
The boys smoking joints stealing cars
No respect another people's
Because liberal allows it. that why
Things are so bad. dirty politician let it
Happen hope this guy wouldn't go to jail
Defending herself knowing how the law
Is no good probably he will
Parents of the year goes to…..
Police show over and over that they are WORTHLESS and it is better to take things into your own hands and give the middle finger to the police.
If your car is stolen the police do nothing. If a pencil is stolen from a cop they bring SWAT, K-9 helicopters and don't stop until the pencil is recovered.
