12-year-old dies in Long Beach shooting

A family is devastated and says a 12-year-old boy was at "the wrong place at the wrong time" when he died after being struck by gunfire during a double shooting in Long Beach.

Can someone tell me why a 12, 13 & 14 year old kids are out walking down the street at 11:40pm? Parents should be prosecuted for child endangerment!

Instead of stupid ballons tell the cops who did this Most of them know and they will not tell

12 year old walking the streets at almost midnight? Very sad but the parents allowed this to happen.

Here's a REALLY GOOD question:
WHO ON GOD'S GREEN EARTH WOULD ALLOW CHILDREN THAT YOUNG ESP A 12 YR OLD OUT?
If the parents had already spoken to them and forbid them to go out, then that's a different story. If the kids were allowed? Hello?

Fam needs to go out and put some dirt on somebody!

[melindasaddler]

Hmm...red balloons, red braids, adults throwing up "signs" behind the kids. And question is, why did he die?🤔

[camillechang]

They should not be out side late at night at 11pm

Instead of criticizing and blaming the parents you need to pray for them they will now have to bury their 12-year-old son. Nobody deserves this nobody in their right mind she think this is OK if you think down in the parents at this time in this time of need ya are no better than a People that murder him

[OlaJones-npzw]

That's mess up and We going get who it was

[Grgaforniateezy]

It’s ironic, I grew up in the south where the guns laws are way more loose but the violence is nowhere near LA🤔

[aavalos]

A bunch of children leaving the house that late at night...Parents should know better not to leave their under age children that late at night. We are living dangerous times.

Poor parenting and some dirtbags killed this boy. Very sad 😢

[lilmaggie]

😢 omg in reality my opinión .. his a kid; who in the world could shoot anyone but dude a kid!!!! Wow.. lack of humanity love

We are in an age where the shooting video games are in their prime in popularity. Im talking to you GTA V and Fornite.

We are in an era where everyone cant separate the internet with reality. I'm talking to you social media.

We live in a world where the emotional support is very slim that its almost impossible to see. I'm talking to you counselor of America.

The end result is a person with mental disorder with depression, anxiety, PTSD who the counselors and society failed him, the end result is a person who spent so many hours inside a room playing video games alone, hours and hours of lack of social interactions. The end result is a person who doesn’t care or doesn’t know that people are important but the internet twisted that perspective and instead he believed nasty and troll people from the internet are the same in reality.
