17-Yr-Old Honor Student, Soccer Player, Shot and Killed by 13 and 14-Yr-Old Boys He Offered to Drive Home In Subzero Temperatures

He was a 17-year-old high school senior, a varsity soccer player, and an honor roll student enrolled in an EMT program at a community college. But, most importantly, Jack Snyder was a good human being.

The good Samaritan was killed last Friday night by two children, a 14-year-old and a 13-year-old, who Snyder was trying to help when he offered to give them a ride home after spotting them in the bitter cold on his way home from his girlfriend’s birthday party in Battle Creek, MI.

The two young boys shot the 17-year-old honor student twice during an attempted carjacking.

Both of the suspects have been arrested. The 14-year-old boy will be charged as an adult.

Daily Mail reports that Jack Snyder was found lying next to his car at around 12:10 a.m. the morning of January 17 in Battle Creek after he was shot in an attempted carjacking, according to police.

EMTs and medical personnel tried to revive the 17-year-old in subzero temperatures, but Snyder was declared dead at the scene.

Battle Creek Police Sergeant Jeff Case said in a press conference earlier this week that Snyder’s desire to help led to his death.

“The victim was trying to be a good Samaritan by giving them a ride with the cold temperatures. I do know that he resisted the carjacking. So again, he was trying to help out but wasn’t going to give over the car,” Case said.

Chimner was charged Friday with felony murder, carjacking, and two weapons-related violations. He is being charged as an adult and faces a maximum life sentence without parole. The 13-year-old who turned himself in has already been charged with murder.

The suspects had no known connection to Snyder. Case said they “have dealt with them before” but wouldn’t confirm any criminal history.

Teachers held a vigil procession in honor of Snyder earlier this week.

Yeah I got it confused with another case. As someone pointed out using the term "boys" was the clue.

The fourteen-year old is being charged as an adult with felony murder, while the 13 year old is charged as a juvenile with murder. That sort of tells me that the 13 year old is the shooter.

And since he’s a juvenile (don’t know if Michigan law allows someone that young to be charged as adult) he’ll be out in four years or so when he turns 18. The other faces life in prison. One year’s difference in ages...

Sometimes Dickens’s phrase “the law is a ass” is spot on.

No it is not. If you read the caption you would see that is a picture of the killer. I know you really want the killer to be black. A lot of people here do. Neither the original article nor the embedded video ever mentioned the race of the killer. You all assumed he was black. I would hope this would teach you a lesson, but it won’t.

This article illustrates the point you and I were discussing yesterday. The real problem is economics, not race. The killer was most likely poor white trash.

Notice how neither the article nor the video ever mention the race of the killer but freepers immediately thought he was black and commented on it.

Tucker is doing a great job in convincing his viewers that blacks, rather than the poor, are the enemy when it comes to violent crime. IMHO, of course.

The 14 yo has prior contacts with the police including theft and trying to sell a gun. Where are the parents? The thirteen year old who turned himself in did so with a parent which is something.

Being a good Samaritan is not a great idea when picking up hitchhikers you don’t know.

Both the Left and the Right think everything is about race, race, race. But, the problem might not be poverty, either. Last week, a white teen murdered a black cop in Philadelphia. The 18yo killer didn’t even live in Philly. He lived in a wealthy community in another county.

It's about culture, culture, culture.

"Both the Left and the Right think everything is about race, race, race."

Our side is supposed to be smarter than that. These types of threads often prove otherwise, unfortunately.

“Never get soft hearted and pick up strangers.”

The strangers may not always be human, but other entities like demons.

They could be angels, too.

I am completely color blind with justice. These “yoots” should get a real 20-50 years in prison AT LEAST.

Unlike many black people, I won’t support people of my color when they are evil or wrong.

There was a time here on free republic you would be vilified and likely zotted for saying what Adams has

Anyone lives near large body of blacks knows caution is prudent

Adams net worth is 75 million

He’ll survive somehow
