Police accidentally shoot 7 year old girl in house search.

Idiot. Nowhere in the story does it say she wrestled the gun away from anybody.

She [[ the 46 year old who should know better) struggles with the cop who went in with safety off and the gun went off ACCIDENTALLY shooting the girl.

Oh, by the way, the suspect WAS IN THE HOUSE!!!

New rule of thumb. If you don't want you kid killed on purpose or accidentally don't have a murder under your roof.

It was a two family duplex, the cops killed the girl in the downstairs unit. The suspect was captured in the upper unit.

The suspect was captured in the upper unit.

and where exactly in the story does it say that?

All I see is the girls father saying that " [[he) and his relatives say that suspect wasn't in their apartment. Jones said police simultaneously raided the upstairs apartment, too"

It doesn't say it in the story, Bora Kim just reported it on Channel 4, and now also by Cheryl Chodun on Channel 7. You wanna take back your stupid, insensitive remarks now genius?

It's in the story.

"Police said they arrested the 34-year-old suspect in the shooting death of 17-year-old Jerean Blake, but Jones and his relatives say that suspect wasn't in their apartment. Jones said police simultaneously raided the upstairs apartment, too. "

If the warrant didn't differentiate between the upstairs and downstairs units, that's a big problem. Furthermore, according to Godbee, the police used a flash bang grenade to confuse and disorient the people inside. Flash bang grenades, as you can probably imagine, are incredibly loud. Between the noise and the smoke, it's quite possible that the Grandmother didn't hear the police or recognize their uniforms. From her perspective, she was probably doing what she could to protect those inside the home. All we can do is wait for further details that will, hopefully, shed more light unto the subject.

The only thing that we know for sure is that an innocent seven year old girl has lost her life. I hope that everything that happens after this is done to honor this child.
