How Police Killed A 12-year-old Boy For Holding A Fake Gun


A police officer is currently under investigation after shooting dead a 12-year-old boy, who pulled a replica gun from the waistband of his trousers in a playground.

The victim, Timir Rice(pictured above) passed away in the early hours of Sunday in Claveland, Ohio, the day after he was shot while holding the fake gun- which resembles a semi-automatic handgun but fires pallets.


A 911 call was make to Claveland Police on Saturday by an anonymous caller, who said a young boy with a pistol(probably fake) is pointing it at everybody and it's scary.

Deputy chief of police, Ed Tomba said one officer fired twice after the boy pulled the "fake weapon" - which did not have the Orange Safety Indication usually found on the muzzle of replicas. He said the boy did not make verbal threats but grabbed the replica hand gun after being told to raise his hands.

A lawyer for the boy's family, Timothy Kucharski said, Tamir went to the park with friends, but doesn't know details of what led to the shooting.
The incident is currently under investigation.

How Newborn Baby Was Found Alive After Being Dumped In A Drain For Five Days


A newborn baby survived five days after being dumped in a storm drain in Australia.
The seven-day-old baby boy was found abandoned at the bottom of a 9ft deep pipe, which was covered with 440lb concrete slab still wrapped in a hospital blanket.
It took six men, including a police officer to lift the slab and rescue the baby.


David Otte was cycling along the road with his 18-year-old daughter Harvey, when they heard a strange noise coming from the drain in New South Waless.

He said: "It was a bit surreal actually. How could anyone do it? I, myself have kids and we're expecting a baby in a few more months so, it's not good that someone's going through this and has done this to a little one."

Police believe the baby had been pushed through a small opening to the drain and were concerned he may have suffered internal injuries from the fall. The child is now in Westmead Children's Hospital in a serious but stable condition.

According to Daily Mirror, a woman was charged with the attempted murder of the child yesterday. She was refused bail and to appear in court today. The baby was abandoned in the drain since Tuesday.
