His name is Ralph Yarl.
⁣
He’s a brilliant, talented, kind, outgoing 16 year old boy from a wonderful family who was shot twice by a white man when Ralph rang the doorbell to pick up his young siblings.
⁣
Police said that Ralph was picking up his siblings at a house on N.E. 115th Terrace, but mistakenly went to a house on N.E. 115th Street in Kansas City, Missouri. ⁣
⁣
And the white homeowner shot Ralph once through the glass front door. Then shot him again in the head to make sure he was dead. ⁣ By a complete miracle, Ralph has SURVIVED and is recovering. ⁣
⁣This homeowner needs to be arrested IMMEDIATELY. He should have been arrested the day this happened. ⁣
⁣
THIS IS NOT A MAN STANDING HIS GROUND. This is NOT a stand your ground case. ⁣A young Black boy HAS THE RIGHT to accidentally go to 115th Street instead of 115th Terrace WITHOUT BEING SHOT. Period. ⁣
⁣
⁣
Police took the shooter in, THEN LET HIM GO. Let him destroy most of the evidence, and have not charged him.⁣
