It’s all fun and jokes until u find out it’s a family member of yours . This isn’t a joke this extremely sad . They are currently working on him. I pray he lives
@oldHarlem_30 Everyone that lose their life to the streets are not always involved in those streets. You’re wrong for assuming this young man deserved to be killed if you don’t know anything about this child or the nature of why he was shot. Innocent people are killed everyday to gun violence. Shame on you and I hope GOD has mercy on your soul
I’m so sick of the gun violence 😡😡😡
You and me both
Please don’t record the faces of ppl who are trying to give information. You are putting them in harms away. Esp being live.
I tried...he walked in front of my camera as I was talking to the cop I was distracted..I tried to keep him off camera
Street wise: yeah they saying too much.. but ya do realize this is called “ citizen app “ for a reason. The person recording is a civilian so any “ street rules “ doesn’t apply to her nor witnesses who watch it happen. Don’t wish jail or no one but ya be sounding so stupid. Like what ya expect ppl outta ppl who live an honest life and don’t be in the streets to live by the same code we do?
@CrashFast exactly young people wildin’ people been doing this for years but we never felt unsafe. Now we do. These kids don’t even respect the streets.
