15-Year-Old Stabbed to Death by Gang in 'Mistake' Killing Wanted to Be a Cop
Quote:A 15-year-old boy who was mistakenly stabbed to death in the Bronx, repeatedly expressed to his mother that he wanted to be a police officer when he became an adult.
Surveillance video from Jun. 20 shows five different men, one of whom is clearly holding a large knife. The men are accused of going into a Bronx bodega and dragging 15-year-old Lesandro Guzman-Feliz out onto the sidewalk.
According to the New York Post, the horrifically injured teen ran toward St. Barnabus Hospital, located about a half mile away from the bodega.
However, he passed away due to his injuries just a few feet away from the hospital.
“I have no reason to live my life,” his mom, Leandra Feliz, told the New York Post. “They kill him. They kill me, too. I’m ready to die. You can put me with my son.”
She explained that her son was always a good kid and shared that he wanted to become a police officer since he was five-years-old when he would tell her, “Mommy, I want to be a police.”
“His dream in the future was to be a detective,” she said.
According to the New York Post, the 15-year-old was enrolled in the NYPD Explorers program, which is open to people from ages 14 to 20 who are interested in pursuing a career in law enforcement.
The grieving mother said he didn't know of her son having any problems with anyone, never had a fight, “and all his friends love him.”
While Feliz is bewildered as to why her son was brutally murdered, the teen's brother-in-law Derek Grullon, reportedly received messages from the gang saying the killing was a mistake.
“They said, 'We had the wrong person,'” the 19-year-old told the New York Daily News.
“He [the gang leader] said they kicked all of them out of the gang,” Grullon added during an interview with the New York Post. “I know it doesn’t mean a lot. It wasn’t supposed to be him.”
The men, who are reportedly members of the Dominican gang Trinitarios, also sent messages to Grullon's wife, Lesandro's sister.
According to the New York Post, Lesandro was mistaken for a teen who appeared in a sex tape video, which reportedly included a young woman who may be related to one of the attackers.
The family called for a boycott of the bodega, where various people stood by and watched the 15-year-old being dragged out of the store and a memorial was erected outside the store.

A very sad and tragic story. Of course Pelosi and the Dems will remind us of the Divinity of the gang members that murdered this poor young boy. And yes, I will proudly call them animals, so fire away board libs. I know that infuriates you.

Why are you even posting this?
I only care about dead children when the cops kill them or when they are being trafficked across the boarder by their **** parents so I can hate on Trump.
