A 15-year-old boy from Ghana, Javits Frimpong, is killed in the Bronx, New York, after being chased and shot while going to school. The Guardian reports he is found by responding officers with a gunshot wound to his stomach, following a police report of a shooting near Corona Park.
Other outlets similarly say the shooting happens around late morning near Crotona/Crotona Park and that Frimpong is rushed to hospital but dies of his injuries. The Punch and Daily Post Nigeria add that police are searching for three teenage suspects, while The Guardian focuses on statements attributed to the boy’s father about prior bullying. The overall emphasis across reports centers on the victim’s age and background, the location and timing, and the police response and investigation.
