Boy, 9, Fatally Shot In Greater Grand Crossing
2014-08-22
[ABC7CHICAGO] Antonio Smith, 9, was fatally shot in the Greater Grand Crossing neighborhood, his family told Eyewitness News Wednesday night.

The victim's relatives made a plea to the shooter, who remains on the lam on Wednesday night.

"He was just a child, just a baby, still had a whole life ahead of him. And like, why? Just a child," said Kenya Eggleston, victim's cousin.

Maybe it was deer season.

Hey, isn't it racist to shoot black kids?

#4  Smith was shot multiple times in the chest

This was deliberate and sounds like a scene from Breaking Bad.

#3  "At first I didn't know if they were really shots or not. I just heard pop, pop, pop, pop, pow. So I just kept doing what I was doing," said Dave West, neighbor.

That says all I need to know about this "neighborhood." When neighbors don't even flench at 4-5 gunshots with kids around.....

#2  However, the kid doesn't count in motivating the base to the November election. Non-person, down the Permanent Party Propaganda Machine's memory hole.
