A 3-year-old boy was killed and his 4-year-old sister was wounded when several gunmen fired nearly 150 rounds into a North Carolina home — in what police believe was tied to a high school feud.
Asiah Figueroa was asleep just before midnight Tuesday when the suspected teenage gunmen pulled up in two cars to his great-grandmother’s Charlotte home and squeezed off hundreds of bullets, Charlotte-Mecklenburg police said.
Asiah was struck by the gunfire and later died at a hospital. His 4-year-old sister was also struck, but is expected to survive, police said.
Investigators released two videos of the suspects pulling up to the home in hopes of getting help from the public in identifying them. Detectives believe the incident is linked to several other shootings which resulted in two homicides.

Don’t execute them, make them pick cotton for the rest of their lives.
In 2nd video (where they circle back), looks like first car, back seat thug’s weapon misfires. He has a spare. Picks up dropped weapon before departure.
You, sir, are an ass.
Guy inside (obeying the sign and wearing a mask):
“Ha, ha. Ya’ missed me.”
There were at least three shooters, maybe five if you count the mostly unseen drivers of the two vehicles. Watch the 2nd video.
“It’s sociopathic idiocy. The killing is so indiscriminate.”
It’s a cultural thing.
All cultures are equal.
“Those who say that all cultures are equal never explain why the results of those cultures are so grossly unequal.” Thomas Sowell
Two cars, looks like 5+ shooters, 11 seconds, appears to be both long & handguns, no visible reloading, - ‘150 shots’? The mind reels at the horror of this yet it is the same (probable) rote thinking that fuels Isis/Taliban/Boko Haram/MS-13. When we lose any sense of answering to a ‘higher authority’ and no one down here wants to tag ‘gang violence’, this is the poisoned fruit!
Sincere prayers for the Figueroa family.
I guess some of them hadn't dropped out yet.
Really, though, knowing that much must mean they can get this one solved, for a change. Fingers crossed.
Ban high schools!
Took that remark as cynicism, not as indifference.
150 rounds? Well, that explains the current ammo shortage for we Law-Abiders.
The miscreants? They get all the bullets they want! Probably for FREE from Mother Government!
“Hey, Deadbeats! Here’s your weekly delivery of Free Government Cheese, a thousand bucks in Food Stamps and 500 rounds of ammo. Don’t use them all in the same place!”
Another dispute over the nature of Kant’s categorical imperative.
I’ve never seen a “high school fued” play out like this, unless drugs are involved.
You’ve been around long enough to know that’s a commentary on the upcoming (lack of) national media exposure.
Two cars. Four shooters.
Where were the adults in the household while this was happening?
Regards,
Maybe it was 30 rounds, seen from 5 different survellience cameras.
That’s 150.
Let’s put it this way: if black lives mattered enough to the black community, this little boy wouldn’t be dead.
Sure there are decent people who hate the criminal element. There are people of all kinds crying for this child, for a few days. But there are enough people backing the criminal element, excusing them, overlooking the transgressions in their own families, that the criminal element thrives.
The gang might have shot at the wrong house, or at a perceived snitch, or ar a good kid who wouldn’t join up, but they probably shot at a rival’s house, which means that in ten years, little Asiah stood a good chance of being a gang member himself.
Ha.
Always leads to prickly disagreements by the school lockers.
