DC man charged in shooting death of 13-year-old | CNN

At his first appearance in DC Superior Court on Tuesday, Jason Lewis, 41, pleaded not guilty to the charge of second-degree murder while armed in connection with the January 7 shooting of Karon Blake. Lewis, who police say holds a concealed carry permit, told investigators he was in bed early that morning when he said he heard what sounded like “someone banging on something” and didn’t know if someone was trying to come into his home, according to the arrest warrant.

Surveillance video from the scene shows that Lewis fired at the Kia as one person ran toward it, and Karon then started to run away from a parked Audi he was near and was shot, according to the affidavit. Lewis is the registered owner of the Audi, according to the affidavit. No weapons were recovered near or on Karon, police said in the affidavit.

Should have posted up in his home if he thought someone was breaking in. As soon as someone steps foot in the door you can blast em, but you can’t shoot someone running away from you in your front yard.

Wow. Despite everything. Please let's RESPECT LIFE. BECAUSE IT'S GIFT FROM GOD.

what happened to baseball bats?

The widespread availability of firearms is terrorism, not freedom. What sort of freedom is it when you could get caught up in a shooting at any moment?

The worst part is that we are totally Numb. Who is reading this story ? What is a life worth anymore. Maybe one click. 13 years old. And nobody asking questions. America is sick
