DOVER, Del. (AP) - Police arrested an 18-year-old man in the shooting of two students at Delaware State University, authorities said Monday. As they led him into a courthouse, he told reporters: "I'm sorry."

Loyer D. Braden, arrested about 3 a.m. in his dorm room, was charged with attempted murder, assault and reckless endangerment, as well as a gun charge, according to court documents.

A justice of the peace set bail for the East Orange, N.J., teenager at $75,000 and ordered him to stay away from the victims and Delaware State. Braden is a freshman at Delaware State, according to a man at Braden's home in East Orange who identified himself only as a family member.

University offficials, who had assured the campus community over the weekend that the gunman was not on campus, could not explain how or when Braden returned to his dorm room.

as well as a gun charge.

That's right add the gun charge because we all know you can't shoot anyone without one...sheesh.

“A justice of the peace set bail for the East Orange, N.J., teenager at $75,000 and ordered him to stay away from the victims and Delaware State.”

Way to be tough, judge. I sure hope you wagged your finger at him when you told him that.

Delaware State is a majority Black College.

Beat me to it. The dude should have shot someone in the Judge’s family just to see what his bail would be for that.

Seriously, since the Judge “ordered him to stay away from the victims” he knew that the guy was getting out.

What a travesty.

The university was much tougher - they put him on double secret probation.

Have Sharpton or Jackson showed up to chatize the black kid for shooting two blacks kids?

Oooops!

He only shows up when it’s black and white and plays the race card. Guess black on black crime is acceptable.

“What do you mean”?


Are you just poltically correct, or are you hopelessly obtuse?

Maybe the latter, because I asked . . . but seeing that I know what the term political correctness actually means (unlike you), definitely not the former.

No. After they finish in Jena, there is another set of black thugs beating up on a white male in Norfolk, VA. That has some race baiting opportunities. The black on black crime doesn't interest them.

A murder is a murder, black or white. Families grieve for the slain and the damned-able slayer. Never any winners.

Let's pray it remains an attempted murder and the victims do not die.
