FORT WORTH - "My son had a lot of dreams and he was so talented," said Latoiya Landers. "I don't get it."

Landers' 14-year-old son Devin Baker was shot and killed Thursday morning after allegedly attempting to break in to a home in the Rosemont neighborhood. Now, Fort Worth police are investigating.

Police say they were called to the 5200 block of Southcrest Ct. in the Rosemont neighborhood of Fort Worth early Thursday morning for a call about a prowler. When they got there, a woman told them several people were attempting to break into her home but they had left the scene.

Where is the picture of the sign that says “A mother shouldn’t have to fear for her son’s life every time he robs a liquor store”

“.... was he working on a acholarship to Willi Suttons College of 2ndStorymen??”

He clearly was an underclassman, as he did not graduate to banks as Willie did.

This is who the pro lifers are fighting for. It is these kids lives that are so precious we need to risk the future of our nation to fight a losing battle to save them.

Yeah, yeah I know it's Photoshopped.

Yeah, but so is this, and it is more true than many want to admit!

Doesn’t seem like the kid actually broke in but was killed while attempting to break in. That’s important imo. I hope I’m never in that position but I doubt I’d shoot through the door - if that’s what happened. Once the culprit breaches the door, he deserves what he gets imo.

He’ll still vote. Dead voters always vote the straight Democrat ticket.

Technically speaking it’s robbery not burglary when someone is present in the dwelling.

The difference between attempting to break in and successfully broke in probably less than a second.

He had dreams, and, was so talented.

Getting out of 6th grade, wasn’t one of them.

A proper headline: “Raise your children right, or they could get killed for their criminal activity”

The career of a future nuclear scientist brutally cut short...

Maybe he was planning on a career of ‘Virus Injections.”
