Brunswick, Georgia (CNN) -- Two teenagers were arrested Friday in the shooting death of a 13-month-old boy who was in his stroller, according to police in Brunswick, Georgia.

The suspects are a 17-year-old boy and a 14-year-old boy, Police Chief Tobe Green told reporters Friday. He said they are being held on suspicion of first-degree murder.

Green identified the older suspect as Demarquis Elkins, saying he will be treated as an adult in criminal proceedings. The 14-year-old was not identified because of his age.

"We are turning every stone to get a motive," said Green. A weapon has not been found.

Police offered a $10,000 reward for information and have received more than 30 leads.

Sherry West earlier told reporters that the incident occurred at 9 a.m. Thursday as she was walking home from the post office, pushing her son Antonio in a stroller. She said she saw two boys.

"A boy approached me and told me he wanted my money, and I told him I didn't have any money," she said. "And he said, 'Give me your money or I'm going to kill you and I'm going to shoot your baby and kill your baby,' and I said, "I don't have any money and don't kill my baby." The boy tried to grab her purse and opened fire when she said tried to tell him she had no money, West said, grazing her head. She said the boy then shot her in the leg.

She continued, "And then, all of a sudden, he walked over and he shot my baby in the face."

I'm down in South Jawja. The only cattle we round up are alligators and rattlers. But that doesn't stop a man from dreaming of the wild west.

Heck, men wear western hats down in your neck of the woods, don't they? It's a state mind, my friend. No apologies or explanations necessary :-)

"we need a uniform so we can tell who's who."

Excellent idea FReepers.

I imagine the Gadsden flag will figure prominently in whatever insignia is finally agreed upon. There's already tons of gear available with that image printed on it.

Agreed...I can't begin to imagine the level of degeneracy a 17 year old would have to have to execute a toddler who is a total stranger.

His family or lack of it has to have much to do with it but many thousands of kids are brought up in one parent families that may not care much for their kids, however they don't do this kind of thing.

I personally believe this degenerate was making his bones in a gang and it's definitely a race crime. Could be wrong but if I'm right lets hope the gang is brought down also though that's not likely to happen.

The enemedia will not portray it like that if it is true.

Need something Americans will latch onto in droves. Need a movement to upset the status quo. Need something to knock the socks off the D.C. folk running us into the ground. Not against the hat honest ... just looking to see if there is something with which to grab the attention of those in D.C. like the Founders did to King George. Don’t want to start a war ... just want to find a way to make D.C. sit up and say what the heck. We are not defeated yet, so we can still take the fight to D.C., I pray.

To a certain extent we all will be ducking bullets from both sides. Smart folks won’t be choosing based on your melanin level.

The only thing that's going to do that, is an honest movement of people who are off their feet and into the street. And in MASSIVE numbers.

It's got to be huge, ongoing, loud, and unrelenting. We're talking about a peaceful war here. One without the guns, but no less vigorous and energetic.

Peaceful rallies, waving signs and banners are a good thing, but they're going to have to bigger, and with a lot more oomph to get the traitors' attention. That has to be coupled with real, and widespread civil disobedience, to get the message across. Every one of us is going to have to be willing to break some unconstitutional laws.

I'll be sure to team up with some smart folks! I don't want to get ventilated. I've still got kids to raise.

Good. I’m glad they’re both behind bars.

Motive? None. Just greed, empty souls, probable lack of a father in their lives, addiction to the gangsta life, plus four years of hearing their guy dividing the country.

The poor mother lost her 18-year-old son to a stabbing in New Jersey. I pray God grants her the peace (and justice) that she so desperately needs.

Sorry Windflier, but the window of time and/or need for peaceful “demonstration” is nearing the tipping point.

There won't be any peacefull “protest movements”.

There is going to be an instant and massive number of people suddenly fully engaged in inflicting a prolonged and violent chaos.

People are more firmly divided against each other, and all are uniting against “our” government.

Good men and women have all cowardly stood silent, and done nothing, for far too long.

May God have mercy on our souls.

Who said anything about being peaceful?

You and I are on the same page. I agree that there's only a small window of time for us to take this thing to the next logical level. If we wait much longer, the people are going to be forced to open that last box, which is the last and final recourse.

If we don't want to be pushed there, it would behoove us all to get our dancing shoes on and get something started.

“Flip the switch, drop them in, and make sure you are wearing your parkas in the first five rows, because that’s the splash zone.”

Hmmm.

Sort of like Gallagher doing people instead of fruit?

or

Sort of Gallagher meets “Fargo”?

or

Sort of Gallagher meets “Tales of the Crypt”?

Ad hoc black Einsatzgruppen.

*That* was chilling.

NO cheers, unfortunately.

I can guarantee that Obama, Michele and Biden won’t show up at the funeral. Neither will Reid, Pelosi, Feinstein, Gov. Hickenlooper of Colorado (D), nor Gov. Martin O’Malley of Md (D).

Just the people in the neighborhood who have to bury one of their youngest.

By the way, Maryland just outlawed the Death Penalty though they have enough cold-blooded killers in Baltimore alone to cause Old Sparky blackouts.

Crime wins again with the help of the liberals/Democrats.

I don’t know about the people being forced to run off buildings story, but the people shredding machine was debunked - see the article “Not a Shred of Evidence” by Brendan O’Neill.

Also revealing is the back history of Jumana Mikhail Hanna, a Christian Iraqi woman who claimed to have been raped and tortured by Uday Hussein. It turns out she had an over-active imagination, and he had never met her, much less raped her. It was true she was in an Iraqi prison, but for fraud and prostitution offences. See the article “An American Dream” by Sara Solovich.

> if it were the other way around and two white youths killed a black baby this would be a national story<

You got that right!

I believe wholeheartedly these two feral monsters shot this baby because he was white.
