The 16-year-old boy who was shot dead by CHOP security in Seattle was homeless and had just carjacked a Jeep when he was told by a friend to drive to the cop-free zone 'for safety', DailyMail.com can reveal.
Antonio Mays Jr died in a hail of bullets in the early hours of Monday morning and his passenger, a 14-year-old, was critically injured after armed security guards fired on their white Jeep Cherokee, which crashed into the barriers of the Capitol Hill Organized Protest (CHOP) security zone.
Ciara Walker, 25, described the two boys as her 'street brothers' and said Mays Jr and the other teen had been living with her and her husband in a tent at the nearby Cal Anderson Park, located just outside the CHOP zone.
She told DailyMail.com in an exclusive interview the boys had stolen the Jeep hours before and were being followed and shot at, prompting her to tell the teens to go into the zone for safety.
Walker revealed she was on the phone with the boys when they were shot, saying: 'The last thing I heard was a crash and pop pop pop, I’m not sure who said what, but one of them said, '''Ah s**t I’m hit, I don’t wanna die.'' Then the phone went dead.'
Walker said she had only known both boys for the past few months, saying: 'They were runaways, we don’t know much about them. They weren’t gang members even though they hung out with Blood gang members.’
Walker said the two teens had carjacked and beat up the owner of the white Jeep Cherokee just hours before the fatal shooting. ‘They held someone up at knifepoint to carjack the Jeep,' she said.
The teens were joy riding around doing ‘stupid s**t’ but then CHOP security started to

I suppose that this turned out as well as possible under the circumstances.
I have not seen such a video.
I have seen video of CHOP residents claiming gunfire came from the Jeep.
“They weren’t gang members even though they hung out with Blood gang members.”
Ahh. . just hanging with the Bloods, doesn’t mean anything, they weren’t gang member, just young boys that mentor youths and are an aspiring rapper. . .hanging with the Bloods doesn’t mean he is one, after all, he was probably doing the crime as part of getting street cred as a way to get close to the Bloods so they could mentor them out of a life of crime.
“Walker said the two teens had carjacked and beat up the owner of the white Jeep Cherokee just hours before the fatal shooting. ‘They held someone up at knifepoint to carjack the Jeep,’ she said.”
Boys will be boys. . .
Seattle PD would have sent in a social worker to de-escalate the situation, right?
They’d be calling him Saint Antonio now if he’d been shot by the police.
It will take a heckuva lot of rope and more than a few pickup trucks, but I think they can manage it.
Welcome to socialism.
But we can take comfort in the fact that the kid did not die as a result of systemic racism. /S
Wait. I thought I read one of the teens was 19 and the other 16. Anyone have more information which report is correct?
Not if they were reasonably in fear for their lives. Which could be argued if the jeep was driving at a high rate of speed towards them or if they were fired upon first.
None of this would have happened had they not STOLEN that SUV! They weren’t just out at night studying the constellations in the western sky.
[But we can take comfort in the fact that the kid did not die as a result of systemic racism. /S]
Maybe they’ll put up a statue of the little carjacker. Seems criminals are the idols of their people now.
Kind of like a violent suspect taking your weapon and firing it at you.
We would never have gotten to this point but for the systemic racism of the White Man. /s
Definitely a win-win situation. Buh-bye!
Why they call them armed security? THis is like calling bank robbers with guns inside security. The stockholm syndrome of bootlicking is strong in liberal america.
THey were city highjacking hostage taking terrorists.
Are you referring to Sean Hannity’s interview? If so, you are mixing the two deaths. Sean interviewed the father of the 19 year old, not the 16 year old homeless (?) carjacker. The 19 year old lived with his father since the age of 2. The father said good night to his son, went to bed and that was the last time he saw his son alive. The media likes to confuse things.
Amazing, city highjacking CHOPers taking out the car jacking trash thug police style....
We keep circling the drain
So, a cop killed a man and savages use it as an excuse to riot, burn, destroy, extort and kill, with the assistance of the mayor. And that’s all right. But the guy who “likes” a post that criticizes blm gets fired.
Call me when fairness returns to the USA.
