quote:

It happened around 4 p.m. Wednesday at Baltimore and Aisquith streets, near the McKim Community Center.

The police commissioner says a young man was carrying what appeared to be a gun in his hand. It was actually a replica semi-automatic pistol.

When two officers approached the boy, he tried to flee on foot.

An officer then discharged his weapon, striking the young man.

The boy’s mother told police he left home with what she described as a BB gun in his hand.

apparently it happened during an event meant to mark the one year anniversary of the riots after freddie gray's death, too

baltimore is gonna burn to the ground, just watch

Hopefully, the officer involved will find himself in the middle of such a crisis so that he will have the opportunity for personal growth. #overcome #blacklivesmatter

Here's some advice for everybody. If you're black, don't carry something that looks like a gun. Unless you want to end up on the news.

No, white people can conceal and carry and not get shot by the police.

he was a black child in baltimore. it would be incredibly strange if he didnt run from the police, given the baltimore pd's documented enthusiasm for shooting black children. the bb gun just gave them the vague excuse necessary to shoot him in the back. carrying a gun is not a crime punishable by death, carrying a toy gun is not a crime at all and it would never have happened to a white kid.
