'Long live Rukia': Balloon release held for teen killed in triple shooting in Rochester

Rochester, N.Y. — Teens in two vehicles drove toward a 46-year-old man, prompting him to open fire and shoot one of them Wednesday afternoon, according to police.
Investigators said the man approached multiple teens occupying a Kia and Hyundai on Norton Village Lane to "inquire about their presence."
The teens left the area in the vehicles, only to circle back and drive at the man, according to police. The man reportedly pulled a legally registered .45-caliber handgun and fired several rounds before the vehicles fled.
Police received a call shortly after 3:30 p.m. for a 17-year-old boy shot on South Union Street. They determined he had been shot at Norton Village while occupying one of the vehicles that drove toward the 46-year-old man. The teen was taken to Strong Memorial Hospital with serious but non-life-threatening injuries, according to police.
Officers recovered a stolen Kia and a stolen Hyundai near the South Union Street scene and took a 15-year-old boy into custody. He is charged with grand larceny, criminal possession of stolen property and unauthorized use of a motor vehicle. He was taken to the Monroe County Children's Detention Center.
The 46-year-old man has not been charged. The incident remains under investigation. Anyone with information is asked to call 911.
The pictures don’t give any useful information.
I’m surprised they haven’t charged the victim yet. Probably later today.

In today’s USA it will probably end up the one defending himself will be chargesd with something.
At this point, I am guessing it was a black on blacks situation.
It says the man approached the teens. Were they somewhere they were not supposed to be or was the man just hassling them?
They were in two stolen cars. They left the area, but came back to run him down.
That doesn't match my guess, but admittedly, it's just a guess based on past behaviors. My guess is black car thieves and a white shooter.
Not making the news cycle again today so it most likely to be black on black.
Norton Village is subsidized housing aka Big Apartment in a “private-public partnership” ™ Just on the “outer ring” of the city bordering the suburb Irondequoit, which is full of leftist guilty whites who are robbed frequently by the urbanites.

Rochester, Jack Benny’s valet?
Ok, that makes sense why he would approach them.
So was the teen that got shot the driver? If not the shooter belongs in jail.
