Time-mark 02:38:49 he says ‘drop it. drop it

---

Not to justify the shooting, I have no idea if it was warranted or not, but I have to ask what was 13 year-old Adam Toledo doing out at 2:38 in the morning with a 21-year old man?

Likely drug related. The 13-year old is the runner and the older kid is the ‘pit boss,’ or whatever the street term is in Chicago for the guy who collects the money and resupplies the runners.

Kid is a punk in the making. In a city where there are shootings every day and he’s out prowling around at 2:30 am runs away from a cop with a gun in hand. Cop has no time at all to determine what this kid is running for, looks suspicious, what do you think the cop is thinking? He sees the gun, tells him to drop it, kid appears to turn holding a gun and all so fastl

And its not like he can tell age.
