Two would-be robbers who were fatally shot at a liquor store in the Gresham neighborhood Saturday night have been identified as a 15-year-old boy and a 17-year-old boy, authorities said.

Keshawn Marzette, 15, of the 8300 block of South Throop Street, and William Larson, 17, of the same address, were pronounced dead on the scene, according to the Cook County medical examiner's office.

Autopsies Sunday determined both died of multiple gunshot wounds and their deaths were classified as homicides, the office said.

The two were shot to death by a store employee about 8:30 p.m. when they tried to rob Z&S Food & Liquor in the 1300 block of West 87th Street, sources said.

homicides?

From the article:

“Larson recently had received his GED and enrolled in Triton College in suburban River Grove.

‘He showed me his class schedule, filled out his FAFSA and everything,’ [his sister said].”

And seven children are now fatherless.

Hell, they could have been GRANDPARENTS.

Brandon acknowledged her brother had been in trouble before but did not specify what that entailed. She said he and Marzette were "always together," and that Larson recently had received his GED and enrolled in Triton College in suburban River Grove.

"He showed me his class schedule, filled out his FAFSA and everything," Brandon said, referring to a form for student aid. "He didn't even get a chance to start. I'm just lost. I'm just numb that I won't see my brother again."

The obligatory future that was lost at the barrel of a gun because of thug culture. No mention regarding the judgement of authorities on justifiable homicide. Will charges be brought against the store owner?

"I saw Keshawn's face and I recognized William's clothes," Brandon said. "He had my boyfriend's jacket on. I just went numb."

Children trump men.
Women trump children.
Blacks trump women.
Homosexuals trump blacks.
Muslim trumps EVERYTHING.

EVERYTHING trumps white, heterosexual, working, Christian men.

homicides?

A required legal term whenever a human kills another human.

It does not indicate criminal guilt or innocence.

[DoodleDawg]

Shame to see two men cut down so early in their careers. </sarcasm>

[Sgt_Schultze]

The report calls them “boys.” We know that is a racist term, so these perps must be other-than-minorities.

[Tenacious 1]

All deaths that are not of natural causes or accidental injury are classified as homicides, even suicide. The question is whether or not it was “justifiable” homicide.

Homicides?

After the dust settles, the store owners should post a new sign.

“Only store owners are allowed to have guns in this store. Criminals killed on this premises this year _2__ and counting. You’ve been warned.”

[John Leland 1789]

homicide: death by, or by the agency of a human. The store clerk was a human and two culprits died by his hands. homicide.

depends on what color the doer (shooter) was at the time of the attack

Cops: Liquor store clerk fatally shoots 2 would-be robbers, 15 and 17

From teh article one jumped the counter and assaulted the clerk and at least one had a gun. What difference does their ages make? Who cares? They were predatory animals and the family member who shot them did the world a service.

[Tenacious 1]

“Why did you shoot the suspects 13 times?”

“I ran out of bullets.”

"He had my boyfriend's jacket on.

Did he steal that as well ?

At least they died doing what they loved!
