A teen accused in March of attacking a 15-year-old girl and stealing her Air Jordans was shot dead on Tuesday in New York City, police said.

Tyquan Howard, 16, was shot around 1 p.m. in front of a building on St. John’s Place in Brooklyn and died hours later at a local hospital, the New York Post reported.

It is unclear what caused the shooting, and police have not made any arrests as of early Wednesday.

Police arrested Howard and charged him with robbery and gang assault for being among a group of five teenagers caught on video allegedly attacking a Brooklyn girl on Utica Avenue in Crown Heights on March 5.

Towards the beginning of the video, the victim curled up in a fetal position to protect herself as one suspect allegedly ran toward her to stomp on her.

The Left would say a gun caused it. I say a miscreant with a gun.

.....sounds like a possible revenge shooting...but if kid was already in trouble...maybe one of his friends did it...especially if Mr “tyquan” was gonna snitch..

Indeed. I should have put the sarcasm tag on the post. Honestly, is this how dumb ‘’journalism’’ students have become? Obviously the writer was trying to ascribe a motive for the shooting. However the way the line was written makes it seems as if some unknown object cuased the shooting. At least it seems like that to me.

“ More of this, if the state doesn’t start to do its job.”
That’s exactly right.

Has anybody seen Dr. Paul Kersey?

Rumor has it, he moved back to New York, and resumed practicing medicine, and, well, you know, “other things.”

I see you are rather cultured.

“It’s unclear what caused the shooting’’. I’d venture to say a gun most likely.

Can you imagine the mental torture the media has to go through to report the cause?

Global warming

Covid

Guns.

Yeah right? As I said in another post obviously the writer was meaning to establish a motive for the shooting but look at the sentence on it’s face. “It’s unclear what caused the shooting’’. What idiocy.

“It’s unclear what caused the shooting’’. What idiocy.

Makes you wonder if these chumps can walk and chew gum at the same time?

I see you are rather cultured.

I try to be. 😁 The other rumor going around, is that he never needed to spend time at the range, since he had more than enough REAL targets to shoot at.
I always liked Charles Bronson. He was an Air Force vet, like me. 👍

Seeing as the girl that was attacked was a white girl, I think the cause of the shooting was probably just typical gang violence. As much as I would like to think it was a dad, brother or uncle of the girl exacting revenge - I doubt it.

She went out like a gangsta. Street cred intact. Word.

[Mark17]

Yep, I would say the odds are, the media would love for it to be some white dude who did him in, but it was probably another gang banger who offed him.
Sorry to sound so calloused, but the world will never miss the dip sh!t. 👎🤪
