Teen shot dead in Seattle's CHOP was being chased - after stealing Jeep
2020-07-02
The poor dears! Turning their lives around. Aspiring rappers?
[NY Post] The teenager shot dead in Seattle’s Capitol Hill Organized Protest area was being chased after stealing a Jeep at knifepoint — and sobbed, "I don’t want to die" after he was shot, according to a report.

Antonio Mays Jr., 16, said that he and a 14-year-old boy were being chased and shot at early Monday after they "beat someone up and took" their vehicle at knifepoint, his so-called "street sister," Ciara Walker, told DailyMail.com.

Walker told the pair to head to the police precinct in the CHOP zone, telling them, "You will be safe there — nothing will happen to you."

"Next thing I heard the crashing and pop pop pop,
...reportedly the CHAZ/CHOP volunteer militia members fired over 300 bullets — and yet she heard only pop pop pop? Words fail...
and one of them screamed, ’Ah s—t I’m hit, I don’t wanna die,'" Walker told the Mail. "Then the phone went dead."

Mays was killed and his younger passenger left in critical condition.

Walker insisted the pair were "not gang members" even though they "hung out with Blood gang members."
Hadn’t yet made their bones, and now one of them never will... and the wounded yoot will still have to do some other dreadful thing to get in.
They told her one of the cars that chased them — allegedly firing shots — had "security" written on the side of it.

"They drove into the CHOP zone not to ambush the sleeping protesters but for their own safety," Walker told the outlet.

"And it ended up costing at least one of them their life."

The deadly shooting ‐ along with an earlier one that killed a 19-year-old ‐ were central to the zone finally getting shut down this week.

#11  “I’m confused. It’s been two weeks. When I went to the hospital there was no detective. No media. Nobody,” said the father. “It’s like they didn’t care. It’s like it didn’t matter.”

They must have been defunded already. You should have said something.

#10  Per the 19 YO who was shot earlier. Hannity interviewed the father and apparently no officials bothered to even notify him. Not the police, not the mayor - he heard about it from his son's friends. And they wouln't even let him see his son for about a week. Sad interview.

#7  Antifa/BLM should have stopped the Jeep by standing still in front of it. They are experts at it by now.

#5   Still, the CHOP's security shouldn't have killed him.

I could have sworn that one of the talking points/slogans was that lives matter more than someone's property.

#3  Still, the CHOP's security shouldn't have killed him. They should have just stopped him. And what about his innocent passenger! Charge the guys who killed him with Murder 1 and execute them tomorrow! And their dogs! And defund the CHOPs. And give everyone else free money.

#1  It would be encouraging to believe that the current violence will lead to a shortage of criminal masterminds in the future, but that's just not realistic.
