A 17-year-old black kid was shot by Georgia police multiple times after pointing a gun at an officer, the Georgia Bureau of Investigations reported, but the mainstream media has not reported on it.
Isiah Gabriel Young was found Monday night in Cartersville, located about an hour north of Atlanta.
There was reportedly a warrant for his arrest for stealing a motorcycle and assaulting a Bartow County deputy. Young had been in violation of his juvenile probation in the past as well, prompting a warrant in Cherokee County.
Upon law enforcement locating Young, he fled into the woods toward a nearby house, where he confiscated a gun from the homeowner. As the Atlanta-Journal Constitution reported:
“While fleeing from deputies, Young broke into the basement of a residence on Azalea Drive and physically attacked the homeowner who was armed with a firearm,” the GBI said in a press release. “The homeowner’s infant child was present in the home.”
