Cleveland Police confirm surveillance video in the area captured the incident, but when newsnet5 asked when it would be released, Cleveland Police Public Information Officer Sgt. Ali Pillow said there is, "No specific time when video might be released."

So, it was not a toy gun, it was a bibi gun. A bibi gun is NOT a toy gun. I knew someone who lost an eye after being shot with a bibi gun.

He was 12 years old ffs, not like he had the sense or wisdom to know what he was doing wrong lol.

also scared, trigger happy cops are ultimately the ones contributing to the higher police shootings statistics. Not the kids running around with the toy guns , because they've been doing this for decades.

It wasnt a toy gun, it was a bibi gun. Bibi guns shoot metal pellets.Hardly a toy.

Bullfuckingshit! At 12 years old if you don't know not to point guns at people then you shouldn't be playing with the fucking things. BB gun or not. And wheres his mom and her baby daddy at?

whatever. it was clearly not a toy.

Not at all.  The video will be telling for sure. At 12 years old he should have known better.

C'mon at 12 you're a child.

[SF1900]

C'mon at 12 you're a child.

i blame the parents A LOT more than i blame the child. why would a parent let a 12 year old have a bb gun?

Where was the kid shot? Did they really have to shoot to kill?

technically its not shoot to kill. incapacitate (however it ends up). shoot for center mass. you do not shoot for the legs to "stop" someone.

[SF1900]

i dont know either. unless he got it from a friend and his parents didnt know about it or maybe he swiped it away when his parents werent looking. Id like to believe that his parents were ignorant of the fact that their son had a bb gun.

Do bb guns only shot metal pellets? When I was a kid a lot of us played around with toy guns that shot plastic pellets. Kinda hurts but far from doing any damage.

A 12 year old should have enough common sense to not be waving a gun around, BB gun or not.

I know kids younger that have real guns, it's about responsibility.  He was probably never taught gun safety and responsibility,  have to blame the mom and her baby daddy, yo.

some do shoot plastic pellets.

this still begs the question: why would a parent let a child leave the house with a gun that looks so real?

Yeah bro, cause kids just walk out with guns, playboy magazines, drugs, cans of beer in hand right in front of their parents before walking out the front door.

let me rephrase: What is a 12 year old kidding doing with a bb gun without proper supervision and flailing it around a park?

Are you trying to say, where's his mom and her baby daddy in all this?

[SF1900]

actually, youre wrong. by 12 years old children can tell the difference between right and wrong.

By 3-5 years old children begin to develop a sense of right and wrong, obviously by guidance from their parents.
