Two of the seven juveniles who allegedly beat an elderly man to death with a traffic cone last month in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, turned themselves in on Monday to authorities.
According to local media, two unidentified brothers, ages 14 and 10, turned themselves in to the Philadelphia Police Department’s Homicide Unit for their involvement in the murder of 73-year-old James “Simmie” Lambert. Currently, the suspects have not received formal charges.
Authorities released security camera footage last week showing the group of teens violently beating Lambert with traffic cones. They described the suspects as “four black males and three black females who appear to be in their early to mid-teens.”
“The teens struck the victim several times with objects, knocking the victim to the ground causing injuries to his head,” Philadelphia PD said. “The victim was transported to the hospital where he died of his injuries the following day.”
The video shows the suspects chasing Lambert across the street before one clocks him in the back of the head with a traffic cone that knocked him down. Another teen then picks up the cone and throws it at the elderly man while he’s on the ground. Lambert then gets up and attempts to get away, but the group of juveniles once again pursues him before they are out of the camera’s frame.
NBC10 reported video surveillance shows the suspects leaving the crime scene with one hopping on a scooter and talking to another young person walking alongside him right after the attack. They can later be seen gathering again, with one teen mimicking a person stumbling.
Authorities transported Lambert to a nearby hospital, where he died the following day.

I never thought about it either until you asked. Then I Googled it and... WHOA!... Ten pounds. Yeah, that could do some damage. Poor old guy.
I thought the new rule in “journalism” is to capitalize Blacks. What editor allowed this to happen? Will there be riots on the streets?
Charge their parents as accessory to Manslaughter
Indeed and it bears repeating. I abhor these FR virtue signalers going on about “black babies” as if this country would be better off if . . . .oh, I know!! we need more of these useless sacks of shit. RBG and Margaret Sanger were correct.
There age should mean nothing. They should be tried as adults. Of course we all know that will not happen because of the skin color of the aggressors.
Okay. They are incorrigible animals. They only look human. Sickening.
Time to ban assault cones!
The electric chair is the only solution...
Need to include the parents and teachers that created these monsters...
They’ll get a scolding and then an ice cream.
That is terrifying to read. I know and have known hundreds of black people that were fine people. I work with many and live near them. I admit that the culture sometimes is chaotic to choose words carefully but calling aborted or unaborted black children useless and what you said but I will not dignify by repeating, that is incredibly frightening to know you are posting on this site.
100 lashes would leave a result that would last a lifetime. this is what just 25 lashes looks like:
Great Observation.
You cannot take Africa out of SOME of the African Americans.
I never heard of the victim, but for some reason I cried when I read the article.
Fast trial and faster appeals then execution at the grave. More than they deserve.
Dream on. Nothing will happen but more tax money wasted.
Lemme guess...
Pictures of the accused aren’t necessary.
“parents”? I guess thats the technical word for them. First off, i’d bet a large sum its “parent” singular, and that she’s not all that upset.
I wonder if the murdered James Lambert is leaving a widow?
Yeah, I thought of that as I posted. In reality it might well be grandma that he goes back home to.
You don’t care that a harmless elderly man was mobbed, pursued, beaten and murdered...and are equating the victim to the murderers? Not a Christian, I see.
I doubt that the 10 year old was the instigator. Might have been the girls, as girls mature faster than boys.
