    Teenager dead after downtown shooting near the canal


    14 year old committing armed robbery at 2 a.m. on the canal in downtown Indy. WTF? But I do love a happy ending. Cue the parents telling us what a good boy he was in 3... 2... 1... :rolleyes: TBH, this kid never stood a chance. He shot and killed a 3 year old after finding a relative's gun when he was 4 years old. Lock 'em all up. Lots of failure in that family.

    He was just on his way home from Sunday school and some white racist person shot him for no reason, no reason at all. Blah blah blah. We want a special outside investigator to come in and look into this. I’m suing all y’all

    As things get more tense its what is going to happen when you shove a gun in someone's face but not what I would call a happy ending. When it's an adult I have no sympathy for the POS but a 14 year old that's obviously had a crap life I get no joy out of that. The only good that might come from it would be to discourage someone else from attempting something stupid. One dead and one emotionally damaged for life, not good for anyone.

    It must be his white privilege. :dunno:

    Deceased teen's Dad was shot today. I'm seeing a family hobby playing a role in their health.

    Monday afternoon, White's father showed up at the emergency room at IU Health Methodist Hospital, suffering from a gunshot wound. There is no word on his condition and IMPD said the two incidents are not connected and couldn't provide any further details about how Curtis White Sr. was shot.

    Well, not really.

    “It’s a painful thing to swallow when he’s only 14,” said Anthoney Hampton.

    Curtis White Jr. was Anthoney Hampton’s grandson. Earlier this month the family filed a police report after the teen ran away from home.


    “This wasn’t a parent mismanaging their child. The child wouldn’t stay home,” said Hampton. “The criminal element, the guns and the money, that’s what he was attracted to.”


    Anthoney admits his grandson died making a poor decision.


    “Curtis has a large family, but he didn’t want the love from his family. He wanted the love from the streets,” said Hampton.

    You have to have some sympathy for the Grandfather. He knew the kid was going down the wrong path, and he's making no excuses for the result. Contrary to what some of you might think, sometimes there's no saving some people.

    Are you sure your kid is going to be 14? It seems like he was like 6 not that long ago.

    Going back to the topic, IMPD said the father showing up with a gunshot wound wasn't related, but maybe that is where the kid learned it from?

    And it says one thing: Dad was a lousy teacher.
