People are dumb and rush to conclusions.
Much needs to be investigated. For example:
did alleged robber actually have a gun
did he point it at anyone
was robber shot inside or outside of store
So just let the authorities sort this all out. They don't need our opinion.

He never had a gun in his hand, never stole, all we did was work. The man killed was my brother, and business owner shot him when he was almost on Main Street. Unfortunately we are Latinos, and racism is stronger in these countries. Also, my brother was a frequent customer of the establishment and the whole family for many years, everyone knows, including the owner who is a despot with us Latinos. But they have to investigate, because they kill, when my brother never took out a gun.

Tanya, if he was your brother, do you mind talking to Patch about who he was as a person?

YES!!! I can tell you as it was my brother, but I'm not the right person to do so. The community of Laurel are the right people to express who was my brother. What I can say that my brother was a hard worker; One who steals, does not rise every day at 4 am to go to work. Do not have a bank account does not have a clean record for years; And no one has the amount stolen, no one explained that if he was armed. My brother in life helped people who were nearby and needed. Actually this was a homicide, no evidence, and the police do not speak to my brother was shot from behind. Because the shot in the hip, and another in the back when he was already injured his hip. Mr. Joshua, God will do justice to the Taliban that killed my brother and all will be revealed. My family is destroyed because we know my brother and wounded before 3.30 am requesting help from his cell and no one helped.
Thank you very much for sharing my comment is his blog.
