A 5-year-old boy who fell almost 40 feet after being thrown over a third-floor railing at the Mall of America on Friday remained hospitalized Saturday, police said.
At a noon news conference, Bloomington Police Chief Jeff Potts said the family of the boy, who remains hospitalized at Children's Hospital Minneapolis, has requested privacy.
Ping
Shocked. Not. SOB.
My heart and prayers are to the family.....but how can you show his picture if the parents are requesting privacy?
Take the SOB up to the roof and shove him off. Oopsie.
let him dangle for 20 minutes first. Then...snip
What an adorable child.
It's from the GoFundMe post linked in the article.
On the other hand ... How can the parents request privacy while they’ve set up a GoFundMe page to collect donations?
The pic is probably from the family friend’s gofundme page.
The suspect, Emmanuel Deshawn Aranda, 24, was quickly arrested after fleeing to the mall's transit station, thanks to witness reports and security cameras, Potts said. He was moved overnight from the Bloomington jail to the Hennepin County jail on suspicion of attempted murder and other charges. He will be charged by noon Monday, Potts said. Potts said there is no connection between the victim, his family and Aranda.
My question as well....
....people are generous, but we need to know it’s not a scam
.........but because of a useless, incompetent and irrelevant program of mental health care (which is deliberately designed to keep patients coming back to increase revenue), such animals as this are allowed to roam free.
They haven’t.
If you actually read the article, a family friend set up a GoFundMe for the child.
Liberals over at DU were certain the victim was a Somali Muslim, targeted in an environment of anger and hostility that President Trump has enabled.
I suspect if the facts hold true, this story will disappear.
Such a beautiful child, he looks just like my 4 year old nephew, breaks my heart to see this child’s face knowing what he’s going through right now..Hardly a mention about this in the commie press, doesn’t fit their narrative so not worth showing..also, this happened in Omar’s district, any comment from her or is she still bitching about how SHE is a victim..she wants to see a victim, go to the hospital and see this child and his family, those are real victims
Prayers for the boy.
Evil lives with that monster who threw him over the rail.
Jihadists do this in Muslim countries, throw people off of roofs..its a common practice..Id like to know if that scum bag is an American citizen/immigration status
I considered that the GoFundMe account could've been a scam. However, if it were, I'm sure the boy's parents would've been informed about it and had it shut down by now.
I'm going to conclude that's it's most likely a legitimate account. But I do intend to follow up on it.
The punishment should be... To let little Landon decide, or even to do it himself, as soon as he’s able, with the understanding that no punishment is off the table. If only there were justice in this world...
