Police allege that Martin drew a handgun on the officer as he approached during a routine patrol. Witnesses saw a weapon at the scene next to the body.The officer fired several shots, fatally wounding him, according to the St. Louis County Police Department.
Fearing for his life, the Berkeley Officer fired several shots, striking the subject, fatally wounding him," police said. "The second subject fled the scene."
Toni Martin, the victim’s mother, said her son was with his girlfriend at the time of the shooting, The St. Louis Post-Dispatch reported.
This is gradually turning into a mayhem and it needs to be nipped in the bud now. We are calling on the American Government to come in and save our kids on the street. How can we have a black American presidents and this type of racial discrimination is still existing? What do you think?
