I hope these kids only get hit with a manslaughter charge because they was provoked and trying minimize it by calling it a water gun shyt is a pallet gun it just shoot frozen plastic pallets instead metal still hurt the same. These kids playing basketball minding their business and this kid is in a car shooting at them and many other random people. With all these mass shootings I understand the heightened tension when you see a random white boy shooting at black people.

Nah it's murder. Explain this to me....if they was so scared it was an actual gun, why would they come back to the shooters with NO weapons of their own? Clearly they either seen some sort of retreat or knew it wasn't a real gun. Where's the fear at that point? We not about to excuse a senseless murder here. fukk them nikkas and all the nikkas who condone that dumb shyt.

Funny how we’re all acting like preexisting conditions are no longer a thing. This dude could’ve been 10 seconds into a stroke or heart attack when he fired his weapon at those youths



Exactly, If a brotha that has high blood pressure is killed by a cop they will say exactly what you mentioned. These cacs so damn demonic :snoop:

A rising high school senior was brutally beaten to death outside an Ohio school created by LeBron James’ foundation last week, and a $30,000 reward is being offered for information leading to an arrest in his death.

Ethan Liming, 17, died June 2 after a fight in the parking lot of the I Promise School in Akron, Ohio, in an incident police are calling a "senseless act of violence."

Liming and his friends were in a car shooting at people with a toy water gun when a physical fight between the juveniles and another group took a deadly turn.

Officers were dispatched around 10:45 p.m. Thursday to the parking lot of 400 West Market Street, just east of the basketball court of the I Promise School, on a call of a fight.

When they arrived, they found a boy, later identified as Liming, lying on the ground unresponsive.

Aid was rendered to Liming, but “unfortunately their efforts were unsuccessful and Ethan was pronounced dead at the scene,” Akron police Chief Stephen Mylett said in a news conference Wednesday.

The Summit County Medical Examiner’s Office said he died from a blunt force head injury and the manner of death was homicide.

Mylett shared a preliminary narrative Wednesday of the events leading to Liming’s death.

Four juveniles in Liming's car were riding around the area of the school shooting a SplatRBall Water Bead Blaster gel gun "at objects and possibly unsuspecting people," police said.

The gun has beads that explode with water “like a water balloon,” Mylett said.

SPLATRBALL
Akron police say that in the moments leading up to the incident, one or more occupants in the victim’s vehicle were riding around the surrounding area shooting a SplatRBall Water Bead Blaster at objects and possibly unsuspecting people.Akron Police Dept.
The group arrived at the parking lot of the school around 10:40 p.m. and two occupants exited the vehicle and started to shoot the gel gun toward four people playing basketball on the nearby court.

The four basketball players started to run away, with the two occupants of the vehicle appearing to run after them. It is not clear if Liming was one of the two. Moments later, as the duo returned to their vehicle, the basketball players ran in the direction of the car, Mylett said.

“A confrontation occurs. Ethan Liming is assaulted and a fight ensues,” Mylett said. “At the conclusion of it, Ethan Liming is dead.”

Three of the four occupants of Liming’s vehicle were assaulted in the confrontation, he added.

"The collective actions of the teens in the car appear to have unfortunately provoked the altercation," Akron police said in a news update, adding " investigators do not believe the attack or the murder were remotely justified."

Liming was a rising senior at Firestone Community Learning Center, where he was enrolled in the Academy of Design, Akron Public Schools Superintendent Christine Fowler Mack said in a statement to faculty and staff after his death.

"Ethan was an athlete, a school leader … and young man with a bright future. The circumstances of how he died will stay with (us) for a very long time," she wrote in a statement shared with NBC News.

Liming's father, Bill, a minister, told NBC affiliate WKYC of Cleveland: “My son died because of a toy. And just goofing around as a teenager.”

He described his son as his “sidekick.” Liming played baseball and football and had a 14-year-old brother and three stepsiblings.Just so happens that

“His little brother is just devastated. Noah idolized his big brother, Ethan. He can’t sleep in his bed. He can’t come close to anything that was Ethan’s. We’re devastated,” his father said.

The incident has shaken the community in Akron.

The LeBron James Family Foundation said it was “devastated” to learn of “the overnight incident that saw a life lost near our school.”

“We are grieving with our community over another senseless act of violence.”

Of the $30,000 being offered for informationleading to the identification, arrest and prosecution of any persons responsible for Liming’s death, $25,000 is from a private donor, officials said. The rest is from the Summit County Crimestoppers Inc.
Just so happens that I work with the cousin of the deceased. His cousin told me about the incident the morning after the boys murder. He doesn't know an new info from the murder, but he did say that he used to babysit the deceased frequently, until the age of 7..

so because they fought back and overpowered the shooter, the shooter wasn't a threat:what:
courage should not be presumed as intent to murder

maybe they didn't want to let a gunman into bron's school


I hope bron gets these kids the best lawyers

Why are you repeatedly calling the untimely death of a vandalizing menace a murder?

Do you know the legal threshold for what constitutes a murder?

I remember random water guns coming out around this time every year when I was a teenager. Type of thing young people have done, are doing, and will continue to do. Its sad and unfortunate that someone is dead because of it
