Oh. wait, the homey who capped a white kid wasn't a cop. As you were. [/sarc]
I used to drive to Wilson twice a week - sadly, a very depressed area with the textile industry having moved overseas a bunch of years before. Hard to believe that town still exists - just like all the small towns up and down I-95.
More detail here, though shorter article. Says suspect & boy’s father were neighbors, that suspect was at boy’s father’s house for dinner, also that boy’s two little sisters saw him shot. https://www.wral.com/wilson-man-wanted-in-fatal-shooting-on-5-year-old-apprehended/19227849/
Why isn't this national news?
Never mind.
Hmmm. I thought that wasn't a crime any more. /s
Bet the killing wasn’t “senseless” considering the number of drugs and weapons charges the perp has. Were mom and dad aware of those? Why did they allow the perp anywhere near their family...
Yes..That is sad.. But it still had one of the worlds GREAT barbecue joints called Parkers Barbecue. I think it is still there..Gov. Jim Hunt said it got him elected twice!!
Thanks for posting. Condolences to family and friends.
Well, well, well...LOOK at that FACE.
This is unlikely to move beyond local news.
Would it be too terribly tone-deaf to post “Get a rope.”?
Family members said Cannon Hinnant was playing outside his father's house when he was shot in the head. The boy's two sisters, ages 8 and 7, saw their brother get shot, according to Cannon's mother.
Evil...deranged...subhuman
Rope, hell... bind the POS to a tree in the woods and slit his belly. The insects can finish him off.
Black man apparently shot five year old white boy in head.
Why isn’t this national news?

Yep, if the races were the reverse it would certainly be endlessly repeated national news and the mainstream media’s talk show commentators would be endlessly touting it as yet another symptom of “systematic racism”.
You won’t see race instigator Gayle King reporting this on CBS This Morning.
Another dead-eyed jogger.
Tucker Carlson is probably the only one with the stones to report on something like this. If nothing else but to point out the two different standards.
And to think Wilson was one of the wealthiest cities in America per capita at one time.
In the olden days if something like this happened a section of the city would burn down, and (comment removed before the monitor sees it), but then it would be safe to be on the streets for years.
