I was just reading a story in the Los Angeles Times about the killing of a 16-year-old boy in Panorama City. He was with three friends when they were approached by two suspects around noon yesterday. The suspects asked “Where you from?,” and when the friends answered that they were not part of any gang, the suspects fired on them.

However, this is the part I focused on:

One boy, 20, was able to escape unharmed, Freund said.

The suspects fled on foot before police arrived, he said. The two injured boys, age 19 and 25, were shot in their torsos and treated at hospitals before being released, Freund said.”

The other three boys were men, not boys.

I’m a jerk.
