Toddler killed by vehicle; driver who stayed on scene shot to death.
A driver in Milwaukee was fatally shot Sunday afternoon when he stayed on the scene after his van struck and killed a 2-year-old child, Milwaukee police said.
A 15-year-old at the scene was also shot and was taken to a hospital.
Capt. Timothy Heier reported that the toddler ran into the street at 5:10 p.m. in the 4600 block of N. 48th St., according to a news release.
The driver of the van, a 41-year-old man, was pronounced dead at the scene.
No suspects are in custody, police said.

“White Lives Matter” is probably appropriate here.
An assumption could be made that a care taker or parent didn’t do their job and the toddler and others paid, but that would be very unfair. I’ll wait until the situation is investigated.
Well, at least they shot the guy. So he probably didn’t suffer a lot. That’s better than the way things often happen in Africa. Over there, the driver who kills a pedestrian is likely to be torn apart, limb by limb, at the hands of a mob.
I had to drive within about a block of that neighborhood (on my way to work) for six months a few years ago.
Was petrified the entire time of getting into some sort of accident that would require me to stop.
For just this reason.
Not necessarily. One may run over and miam a dozen other people to flee the scene. There are still a ton of choices in Africa.
In some cities, Jacksonville Florida comes to mind, you don’t stop in certain neighborhoods unless your car is upside down or impaled on a power pole. If you kill someone that runs in front of you well there’s that old saw to the effect that it is better to be judged by twelve than carried by six.
You have to remember that if he would have driven to the nearest police station, the local perscutor prosecutor would have still charged him with leaving the scene.
That's because the local persecutor has got gunthugs, and doesn't have the worries of the little people, like this dead peasant.
London has “no-go” zones.
The US is getting “no stop zones”.

All just part of Anarcho-tyranny:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Samuel_T._Francis#Anarcho-tyranny
Sam Francis wrote: What we have in this country today, then, is both anarchy (the failure of the state to enforce the laws) and, at the same time, tyranny – the enforcement of laws by the state for oppressive purposes; the criminalization of the law-abiding and innocent through exorbitant taxation, bureaucratic regulation, the invasion of privacy, and the engineering of social institutions, such as the family and local schools; the imposition of thought control through "sensitivity training" and multiculturalist curricula, "hate crime" laws, gun-control laws that punish or disarm otherwise law-abiding citizens but have no impact on violent criminals who get guns illegally, and a vast labyrinth of other measures. In a word, anarcho-tyranny.
And he also wrote: The laws that are enforced are either those that extend or entrench the power of the state and its allies and internal elites ... or else they are the laws that directly punish those recalcitrant and "pathological" elements in society who insist on behaving according to traditional norms – people who do not like to pay taxes, wear seat belts, or deliver their children to the mind-bending therapists who run the public schools; or the people who own and keep firearms, display or even wear the Confederate flag, put up Christmas trees, spank their children, and quote the Constitution or the Bible – not to mention dissident political figures who actually run for office and try to do something about mass immigration by Third World populations.
We need to get the law changed. No one should have to wait in some inner city black neighborhood. A person should be allowed to drive to the nearest police station...
30 years ago in Chicago for me, nearly clipped a kid. I knew one thing - there was NO WAY I was going to stop. Spending 10 years in jail still beats the punishment that this guy got. And I’ve heard that there is a degree of sympathy for drivers that scram, providing, of course, that they call in as soon as possible and are not drunk.
sounds like 48th & north or 48th & burleigh....total ZOO for years....I have never understood why cities don’t clean up these violent neighborhoods...they are totally useless sewers of crime, drugs, welfare abuse, violence...whatever. Milwaukee, where I was raised near 34th & Mount Vernon has become a cesspool of filth and depravity.
Life is cheap in Africa.
Or any western urban cesspool that resembles it tribal nature.
The Managerial State needs your fear to continue extracting money & obedience from you.
The police have to treat this as if a Federal Official was killed and FIND who did this. That person MUST be tried and executed for that.
Who knows, maybe the authorities have been told not to mess with the democrat voting base.
It’s racist to clean up those neighborhoods. That’s why.
Most of those neighborhoods were “helped” by community organizers (like Obama was) just sayin.
I have no idea who you are or what you are up to.
But your screen name cracks me up!
