Keep in mind the 13 year-old probably didn’t look like a stereotypical 13 year-old. Especially not like a stereotypical white 13 year old boy. He was probably as big or bigger than any full-grown man and just as menacing looking when he was approaching the victim’s car.
“He was protecting himself…”
When a group of four would-be carjackers approached a vehicle in North Miami Beach, Fla., recently, a legally armed passenger reportedly took action before the planned crime could take place.
Police reports indicate a female driver warned the passenger that at least one of the suspects was armed. It was at this point, authorities say, that the victim fired two shots, seriously injuring a 13-year-old suspect.
“He was afraid for his life,” Detective Cora Mann said. “He was protecting himself and his girlfriend.”
The teen was transported to a nearby trauma center where he was listed in serious condition.
Police are asking anyone with information about three additional suspects to assist in bringing them to justice.
