"I don’t know they don’t say because they’re juveniles generally we believe it’s black kids but this is such a fluke I don’t know what a tragedy for the family and what do you do with an eight-year-old"

I have some knowledge about the area and honestly the boys are likely to be white rather than black or Latino, not that it matters. It sounds like two kids out plinking varmits made a stupid but tragic mistake.

Yes, I’m in South Carolina, and though blacks commit many crimes, someone shot in a field in Oconee County is more likely to have been shot by someone white. Also some people have been jumping to the conclusion that the boys meant to kill him. The statement said they “...discharged a firearm in a reckless manner in the direction of Mr. Smith...” Even at that age or younger, though, I think I’d have had enough sense not to do that.
