Police: 13-Year Old Shot By Officers In Baltimore Had Replica Firearm
Baltimore police on Wednesday shot a 13-year-old boy in possession of a replica firearm, The Baltimore Sun reported. The boy did not suffer life-threatening injuries, according to the report.
Baltimore Police Commissioner Kevin Davis said there was "no reason to believe that these officers acted inappropriately in any way," but said they would investigate the matter, according to the Sun.
Davis said in a press conference that police had taken the boy's mother into custody and were asking her about the events that unfolded. Davis said the woman was aware her son had the fake gun, according to the Sun.
The shooting happened in East Baltimore, but across town, the Baltimore Sun reported that the city was remembering the riots that sparked a year ago after Freddie Gray died in Baltimore police custody.
The shooting came two days after Cleveland police settled a suit with the family of 12-year-old Tamir Rice for $6 million. Rice was shot and killed by police while playing with a pellet gun.

So are the cops gonna say he pointed the gun at them to justify it.

Bruh I hate these shootings with a passion and the cop should be held 100% accountable...

Under no circumstances -
Kid still alive though

I hope so, they know they ain't have to shoot that kid
Just like they ain't have to treat the kids mom like that...
They wrong as ? -
Even if the gun looked real why would they shoot a kid RUNNING away from them?
The shootings are mostly coordinated to show black ppl the cops are in power -
if its a replica or toy gun then the barrel should have a bright orange colored tip to distinguish it from a real gun. I think the cops would be trained to look out for that.

cuz the narrative is hot as ? .....
it gets reactions and sparks controversy...
police supporters arguing with anti-police activist are among some of the biggest online debates...
so anytime there's a police shooting in any city, news outlets rush to put the story out there...
if it's a unarmed black man or an unarmed black kid.....they push that ? harder than anything in the world, cuz they know people gonna have passionate opinions ad get to arguing...
the media don't give a ? about ? but moving units....they just like drug dealers or any other "ends justify the means" business -

His mom probably had no idea he had that
