I live in a two story apartment complex. Roommate had a friend over for a month (tall punk and nerdy white guy) and gave him a key to come and go as needed. One day, he got confused and went to the apartment next door by mistake. He put he key in and turned, nothing. He tried to wiggle it but it didn’t work. According to him, our neighbor opened the door and shoved a gun to his head because they thought he was trying to break in.
My roommate’s friend almost got murdered because he forgot which door was ours.
> In order for law enforcement to make an arrest, they need a formal victim statement, forensic evidence, and other information to complete a case file. However, due to the teenager’s injuries, police have not yet been able to take a victim statement.
I have to assume there is an exception to this rule for murder charges. How is there no exception for other victim-unable-to-communicate situations? This sounds really weird.
This is what I always scares me about knocking on random peoples doors even in nice areas, I could never do door to door sales or anything. Years ago in Phoenix where I live a guy shot an Amazon driver that was just simply delivering a package.
Why is the news in your country obsessed with race ? What does the fact one is white and the other black has to do with anything ffs. Like anywhere else on planet earth the words black and white would never make it to the article at least if it isn’t about the US. At this point I’m kinda convinced the lefty media in the US is actively TRYING to incite racial violence and riots. Edit: anyone that thinks I’m racist can f**k off.
I really hope this young man survives and without any physical issues. He’ll have PTSD from hell though. Arresting the shooter should’ve already been done given the fact the police know what put this boy in the hospital. What a fucked up law.
Can everyone just settle down and wait a little? The charges were not filed yet because they could only hold the guy 24 hours and they want a statement from the victim which is currently unavailable. Get all the ducks in a row before laying charges. There is plenty of time. I do not think there even is a statute of limitations in MO for attempted murder and even if there is, it is definitely more than a year.
I have decided what is the worst part of this story. The fact this kid was shot twice in the head by a racist lunatic. Or that he had walk and knock on three doors to get help. The person who finally helped made it conditional and told him to keep his hands up like he was a criminal and not an innocent kid bleeding from his head.

Don’t even comprehend how one can just shoot someone twice in the head for knocking on their door. Fear is diving people into animal behaviour

The “good guy with a gun” crowd is awfully silent right now
