The cops did find two weapons in the car. I'm waiting for more info.
Local media got the riot they wanted.
They had just participated in a car to car shooting that had left another person injured.
When they yell no justice, no peace it means so whatever you want and if the po=lice interfere resist!
Running from the cops will get you killed.
It may be wrong, unjustified, illegal, immoral, racist or whatever.
It will still get you killed. So why do they do it?
Probably because the juvenile (now deceased) was the triggerman in the previous shooting.
I notice there are no riots and protests when a white kid is shot by the police. Just for running away.
Gee, I wonder why that is.
Was Antwon of the Negro-Persuation?
Are you speculating or do you know that from another source?
Face It if a cop shot a black youth while he was shooting a black crowd at a rappers show the blacks in the crowd would protest the police action.
Post #3 was based on what I read yesterday at another source. That story included the additional detail that there was return fire as well.
I’ll dig around and see if I can fined that again.
Cool. Thanks!

“According to officials, police were responding to reports of a shooting around 8:20 p.m., finding a wounded 22-year-old man who had been shot but was taken to the hospital and survived. Police put out a call for a vehicle that was reportedly seen fleeing the scene, and police pulled over a vehicle that matched the description. According to the police account, officers were detaining the driver of the car when two people jumped out of the car. An officer immediately and without warning opened fire, killing Rose.
“Allegheny County police Superintendent Coleman McDonough said police found two guns on the floor of the vehicle in which Antwon Rose Jr. was riding in before he was killed. The driver of the vehicle, who is 20, was released after being interviewed by police Tuesday night.”
“According to CBS Affiliate KDKA, officers responded to a shots fired call in North Braddock. When they arrived on scene, they learned that a 22-year-old man had been shot in the abdomen.
“That person returned fired and struck the vehicle with multiple rounds.”
Not a good area but action seems to be taking place in the east hills.
Getting' to be that a baby mama can't send her baby on a drive by without worryin' if he be comin' back to da crib.
The “returned fire” was the initial shootout that did not involve the police. There is video of the police shooting and from that video, it does not look like a good shoot. The now deceased perp bolted out of the car and was sprinting directly away from the scene and an officer squeezed of 3 quick shots as he was running away. While this officer may indeed have saved the public from decades of violent crime from this perp, he may well have sacrificed his own career and possibly his freedom to do so.
Needed killing. Got killed. Bring on the riots.
If true, then they were in pursuit of a dangerous potentially armed criminal so attempting to stop him as he ran AWAY is justified to protect citizens.
They had just participated in a car to car shooting that had left another person injured.””’
