2 14 Year Olds: 1 Dead, 1 Shot.

Both 14 year old boys had guns. 

JPD issued the following statement. 


Jackson police are investigating a shooting that occurred around 3:30am today. A 14 year old male was found shot multiple times on Bounds St near Keele St and was pronounced deceased at the scene. Another 14 year old male was also shot multiple times at the same location but was able to go to a nearby location and ask a homeowner for help. He was transported to Blair E Batson Hospital for treatment. Both subjects had handguns that were recovered. Information gathered by investigators indicated the subjects had been breaking into cars in the area. Anyone with information is asked to call JPD at 601-960-1278 or CrimeStoppers at 601-355-TIPS (8477).

When children start shooting children then you know Jacktown has become lawless. My office is right around the corner from this location -- for now. I definitely will start looking for a new business location outside Jacktown...

The old saying, “Nothing good happens after midnight,” holds true again. Parents, do you know where your children are?

14 years old.

And I'll be surprised if there is any "outrage" or national media coverage . . .

I wonder if the Mayor or any City Council member will even make a statement ?

I will not mention the Andrew Jackson statue.

A falling out between thieves, or a resident defending his property?

1:40, sadly there's likely only one parent around and she doesn't care where the "kid" is.

Next said...

"Parents?" That would be one of these:

1. Mom
2. Auntie
3. Grandma

That is very very close to Baby Chok's home, but of course his street has a gate, and he has armed security.

Kids get murdered in Jackson. Kids in Jackson understand the need for self defense.

Are they getting good at treating gun shot wounds at the children's hospital? Is this one of the hard won changes to a reluctant Mississippi that Crawford was talking about?

This is beyond sad nor is it acceptable. 14 year olds out at 0330 breaking into cars and both shot. No mention of a gun fight versus homeowner shooting these two or other youths out doing the same. What happened to the so called curfew for juveniles that I though was still in effect. Shame, and people on here are right, little to nothing will or can be done about it. The survivor will pull a Sgt Shultz, I no nothing, I saw nothing.....

Did a 3rd party shoot them both?

Good thing Jackson is taking down that mean old evil statue!

Kenny Stokes said breaking a window in a car is not grounds to be shot to death. Nor is stealing from a car is grounds to shoot somebody.

Since no dealer would ever consider selling to a 14 year old if they wanted to keep their firearms license and not go to jail where did two 14 year olds obtain handguns?

Ya know, I've often heard people "in the know" say, if you're going to get bit by a snake, you don't want to get bit by a really young one, because they aren't mature enough how to control the amount of venom they release. Sounds plausible to me.

I use that as an analogy for kids like these. They're the really dangerous ones, because they aren't old enough to understand the gravity of acts they may cause nor have the had the life experiences yet to understand how to "moderate" this acts.

I suspect had someone confronted either of these two, they would have shot that person without even thinking. It's not clear yet what happened, but it may be someone drew on them first................

Yes. But it is safe to assume that the homeowner wasn't white or else the MSM would be making a new martyr of the would-be burglars.

Remember that security camera footage from Brandon the other night? These punks know they could get shot, so they are armed.

The only announcement you should make when you see them breaking into your property is your first shot fired. Otherwise they will kill you.

That is what happened here, the homeowner got the jump on them.

now the homeowner has to worry about the surviving thug coming back for revenge with is little hoodlum friends.

I always heard the only thing open after midnight was the emergency room & a pair of legs. Well at least one of them made it there.

Kenny Stokes should stay far from my house.
I have completely thoughts on that matter.

Glad to hear from Mayor Lamumble. Wait, is that crickets I hear?

Like 1:34, we're also right around the corner. While I'd love to relocate, I'll probably ride it another year or two (cheap rent) til retiring.

I''m just pissed that for everyone of these kids that aren't actually killed in the melee, we have to pay $50-60-70K (hospital bills) to patch their ass up til next time it happens.

I doubt that they were "breaking into cars," as history tells us that residents don't lock their cars, often with a pistol or two inside.

It is highly likely that the pistols that they possessed were stolen from unlocked cars that same night.

LOCK YOUR CARS!!!

DON'T LEAVE FIREARMS IN YOUR CARS!!

Where do they get guns???

I attended the Jackson gun show this weekend. Yikes.

"Kenny Stokes said breaking a window in a car is not grounds to be shot to death. Nor is stealing from a car is grounds to shoot somebody."

I have a 100% foolproof and guaranteed way to never ever under any circumstances be shot (or even shot at) while stealing a car: don't steal a car. As crazy as it may sound, it really does work 100% of the time! And folks would be amazed at all the other things it works for, too. For example, if you don't want to be shot breaking into homes, don't break into homes. Or if you don't want to be shot while robbing a bank, don't rob banks. I know, hard to believe, right? It may impossible to believe, but it really does work every damned time!

My Jpd friend says a lot of burglary cases were closed with this death.

Anonymous said...

On that street most of the cars are parked in driveways or under carports, not on the street. My guess is that these punks were confronted by a resident, drew on him, and got shot to pieces. The police are being pretty quiet about this, I suppose out of concern for the homeowner.

I agree with the admonition to not leave guns in your cars. And I’ll add: you better have them on your person at all times these days. Your car isn’t going to defend you!

I started carrying after I encountered an “almost” incident about 10 years ago. There hasn’t been a day since that I didn’t have a firearm on my body since. Completely and totally for defensive purposes.....but it’s there. I just pray I never have to reveal it to anyone....

Somebody above said...

"Yes. But it is safe to assume that the homeowner wasn't white or else the MSM would be making a new martyr of the would-be burglars."

Now hang on a dawggone minute there Festus, I don't recall seeing the "race" of the suspects/victims in the JPD presser. Perhaps Mr. Bill Crawford could shed some light on this particular incident of "Systematic Racism" for us, if in fact he deems it to be such.

If the bullets don’t get you, the damn pot holes will! COJ is in a sunken place. Get Out!

Yes, I heard Stokes say this afternoon that was no reason to shoot a kid; Maybe next they can go to his house and break into his automobiles!

Anonymous said...

Yikes is right, 8:58. I was at that gun show this afternoon, and the racial demographic was completely flipped. And none of the collector clientele you usually see. There was a strange, bad vibe there, all around.

Bounds near Keele...where do I place the teddy bear?

Anonymous said...

8:58PM, you can bet that they didn’t get their guns at a gun show. The folks that set up at gun shows don’t sell guns to kids. If they did they would end up in federal prison. Thugs don’t buy guns they steal them.

all of this sort of thing will stop when the flag is finally changed and the city gets rid of the andrew jackson statue.

Anonymous said...

For Mr. Stokes... Could it be the homeowner was stopping a crime in progress and was armed? When he approached to stop the crime the robbers opened fire on him. At that point it became more than a break in. If this is so Mr. Stokes your viewpoint is moot.

Anonymous said...

They are (were for one of them) simply a product of their culture.

This happens every day in every major city.

It will only get worse until we decide to stop it because the state, local and federal governments don't have the balls to do it.

Anonymous said...

8:57 - Exactly. No one wants to point the finger for fear of being called or racist or bigot or being censored on sites such as this. The culture you mentioned has been permitted to take a foot hold and grow. It is a cancer.

Anonymous said...

Why do people keep associating inner city thuggery with racist thuggery? I am still tickled by the deflectors out in the burbs. You left Jackson, so it is no longer your issue. You didn't give a damn when you lived in Jackson, and you don't give a damn now. Fly your damn flag in your yard (I think the statue should stay though), we don't care.

" Kenny Stokes said . . . "

Laughing Out Loud.

I was waiting on "pins and needles" what Kenny had to say at his weekly Sunday presser.

I can't believe the three local "news" stations actually send crews out to cover this councilman.

But, he has alway been interesting.

My fluffy Uncle really want's to know who makes his suits.

You reckon someone in the neighborhood fed up with these car break-ins set up an ambush? The police have been pretty quiet about this case.

Same 14 year old breaking into houses in NE Jackson for weeks. Or the ones who smashed up Swann’s Gun Repair 4 times in 25 days?

Anonymous said...

10 PM rule holds, be home and secure after 10 pm.
More information forthcoming I hope.
Will not defend a occupied vehicle with deadly force. Stopped the poor behavior of leaving a firearm in a vehicle decades ago. If required for short periods of time it is in locked box, not just waiting to be taken.
Many people are economically trapped in places they would love to leave. Seems so bad cannot even neighborhood watch on crime.

Anonymous said...

I was in Swann's the other day, and Mr. Swann told me the ATF had arrested one of the kids who committed the break-ins. He was 12 or 13 years old, and had shot himself through the foot with one of the stolen pistols. The ATF was monitoring the kid's social media posts, which tipped them off.

Anonymous said...

This would be a good time to find out where/who they were selling/giving the guns. Also, this would be a good time to arrest the legal guardians for the violations set forth by the city of Jackson. Plus not being responsible parents!

A handgun in a lockbox is at least as useless as a condom in a billfold during sex.

1:53......

We know you don't care. The condition of Jackson is proof positive of that.

Again, a liberal with their head buried so they don't see all the real problems so they can just ignore them. We know that when you have no real answers the only thing you can do is cry " racist", but when all the faces on the 6 & 10 PM news and in the Clarion Liar are black
your point is rather invalid.

Why I'd go so far as to say you live out in the far northeast corner of Jackson. Now if you were the real progressive you say you are, why don't you live down around Hemlock & Robinson or out on Capital around Alabama Street or Road of Remembrance?

I think you're full of what Jackson has been dumping in the Pearl River from it's so called Sewage Treatment Plant for the last few years, or maybe you're just stupid.

The parents knew what he was doing. Never been able to control him or his siblings. He was walking up to people he didn't know in neighborhood pointing guns, shooting in yard just wreck less with both parents at home.

You say they didn't have to kill him but he was terrozing the community

Trollfest '09

Trollfest '07 was such a success that Jackson Jambalaya will once again host Trollfest '09. Catch this great event which will leave NE Jackson & Fondren in flames. Othor Cain and his band, The Black Power Structure headline the night while Sonjay Poontang returns for an encore performance. Former Frank Melton bodyguard Marcus Wright makes his premier appearance at Trollfest singing "I'm a Sweet Transvestite" from "The Rocky Horror Picture Show." Kamikaze will sing his new hit, “How I sold out to da Man.” Robbie Bell again performs: “Mamas, don't let your babies grow up to be Bells” and “Any friend of Ed Peters is a friend of mine”. After the show, Ms. Bell will autograph copies of her mug shot photos. In a salute to “Dancing with the Stars”, Ms. Bell and Hinds County District Attorney Robert Smith will dance the Wango Tango.

Wrestling returns, except this time it will be a Battle Royal with Othor Cain, Ben Allen, Kim Wade, Haley Fisackerly, Alan Lange, and “Big Cat” Donna Ladd all in the ring at the same time. The Battle Royal will be in a steel cage, no time limit, no referee, and the losers must leave town. Marshand Crisler will be the honorary referee (as it gives him a title without actually having to do anything).


Meet KIM Waaaaaade at the Entergy Tent. For five pesos, Kim will sell you a chance to win a deed to a crack house on Ridgeway Street stuffed in the Howard Industries pinata. Don't worry if the pinata is beaten to shreds, as Mr. Wade has Jose, Emmanuel, and Carlos, all illegal immigrants, available as replacements for the it. Upon leaving the Entergy tent, fig leaves will be available in case Entergy literally takes everything you have as part of its Trollfest ticket price adjustment charge.

Donna Ladd of The Jackson Free Press will give several classes on learning how to write. Smearing, writing without factchecking, and reporting only one side of a story will be covered. A donation to pay their taxes will be accepted and she will be signing copies of their former federal tax liens. Ms. Ladd will give a dramatic reading of her two award-winning essays (They received The Jackson Free Press "Best Of" awards.) "Why everything is always about me" and "Why I cover murders better than anyone else in Jackson".

In the spirit of helping those who are less fortunate, Trollfest '09 adopts a cause for which a portion of the proceeds and donations will be donated: Keeping Frank Melton in his home. The “Keep Frank Melton From Being Homeless” booth will sell chances for five dollars to pin the tail on the jackass. John Reeves has graciously volunteered to be the jackass for this honorable excursion into saving Frank's ass. What's an ass between two friends after all? If Mr. Reeves is unable to um, perform, Speaker Billy McCoy has also volunteered as when the word “jackass” was mentioned he immediately ran as fast as he could to sign up.


In order to help clean up the legal profession, Adam Kilgore of the Mississippi Bar will be giving away free, round-trip plane tickets to the North Pole where they keep their bar complaint forms (which are NOT available online). If you don't want to go to the North Pole, you can enjoy Brant Brantley's (of the Mississippi Commission on Judicial Performance) free guided tours of the quicksand field over by High Street where all complaints against judges disappear. If for some reason you are unable to control yourself, never fear; Judge Houston Patton will operate his jail where no lawyers are needed or allowed as you just sit there for minutes... hours.... months...years until he decides he is tired of you sitting in his jail. Do not think Judge Patton is a bad judge however as he plans to serve free Mad Dog 20/20 to all inmates.

Trollfest '09 is a pet-friendly event as well. Feel free to bring your dog with you and do not worry if your pet gets hungry, as employees of the Jackson Zoo will be on hand to provide some of their animals as food when it gets to be feeding time for your little loved one.

Relax at the Fox News Tent. Since there are only three blonde reporters in Jackson (being blonde is a requirement for working at Fox News), Megan and Kathryn from WAPT and Wendy from WLBT will be on loan to Fox. To gain admittance to the VIP section, bring either your Republican Party ID card or a Rebel Flag. Bringing both and a torn-up Obama yard sign will entitle you to free drinks served by Megan, Wendy, and Kathryn. Get your tickets now. Since this is an event for trolls, no ID is required. Just bring the hate. Bring the family, Trollfest '09 is for EVERYONE!!!

This is definitely a Beaver production.
