After posting the information on social media, detectives eventually managed to track Battle down and arrest him on Wednesday; he had allegedly cut off his hair in an attempt to change his appearance. He is being held without bond.
Exercising his right to silence, Battle did not give a motive for the attack, the question about his height appearing to be his only interaction with the victims. Deenihan lamented the boys, who he described as"very good kids from really excellent families", would now never know how tall they would have been.
"The victims commented because, since Battle is quite tall, and they asked him how tall he was, and you know, hoped to be that tall someday," he said."And unfortunately, obviously, we'll never see the full growth of these poor children."
TooFab It’s good to see Chicago is getting back to Normal!! 😉
TooFab Wow black on black shooting in Chicago . Hmm WERE IS BLM AT OH YES BURNING UP AMERICA WITH THIER MARIXIST VIEWS.
TooFab He must of been like 6.5 in that picture

TooFab Well done America 👏🏼🇺🇸
TooFab Why don't you update your story HarveyLevinTMZ They arrested and charged someone with this shooting A WEEK AGO
TooFab Trumpland
TooFab And ? What elese ? 🤔
TooFab BLM is a terrorist organization!!!
TooFab The boys? I thought this was celeb site so now yall report Chi town news. FOH
TooFab about 330 have been killed in chicago this year so far its interesting how selective TMZ is about which cases they care about. I guess innocent boys buying candy is a good headline
TooFab Hmmmm.....no riots? No protesting?
TooFab We fighting and protesting against police brutality and racism and Karens calling 911 on us for minding our own business and there’s still niggas out here doing coon shit.
TooFab Doesn’t make any sense smh
TooFab Was it a cop? Nooooope
TooFab (sigh) 💔
TooFab How come there's no riots and protests over this
TooFab His life don't matter!
TooFab BLM
TooFab Blame it on COVID-19. End the investigation. Throw away the file.
TooFab My prayers and condolences 🙏...So sad 😔
TooFab Black on black crime
TooFab Not sure I believe this is all their is to this story.
McClain_on_NFL TooFab Chicago has become a war zone. Death means nothing to so many out there.
TooFab I don't know WTF is wrong with people but this is the reason I avoid interaction with strangers. Even when they start with me, I shut it down as quickly as possible. You just never know who's standing next to you.
TooFab This story sounds stupid. I’m sorry for the lives lost but him shooting them makes no sense at all. Stupid. Rip
TooFab Definitely a Trump supporter.
TooFab Wtf is wrong with people?!
TooFab 💔🙏🏽 you just never know what demons people got.
TooFab Come on. He had a gun and you’re asking for compassion? Wtf. I’d probably do the same after being in front of them
TooFab Defund the police.
TooFab Let’s move on … thanks.
TooFab Is this what everyone is rioting about?
TooFab Blacks LeBron doesn't love
TooFab
TooFab I dk if its that simple, there's something else to the story, something happened to that guy, he had 1 shoe and he was limping
TooFab So are whose in the wrong here? I’ve seen so many of these I don’t know who’s wrong
TooFab About a week late
TooFab Am sure the shooter thought it was a hit on him. For whatever reason you can see the way he walked and eyes of paranoia something not right. It’s a shame that kids can’t talk to people because of this. Bless their parents and the city.
Sirdemby TooFab I am so sorry for what their families must be going through. Please understand not all white people are evil racist. I view all people on their intelligence, values, kindness....never on the color of their skin.
bernieandsid TooFab Don’t forget ... in Chicago it’s always the gun’s fault.
TooFab blacklivesmatter? Clearly not to one another. Just look at the numbers. Liberals hate facts. All about the narrative.
TooFab Ask cnn why not reporting. What room y’all so long? It’s been out for days.
TooFab That dude is toast. They have a clear video of him walking in, then running away with the gun in his hand.
TooFab Animal.. yet they will spin this that he is the victim because he is oppressed. It’s disgusting and if BLM wasn’t a scam they would be spending those millions in donations to better these communities. They are using Black people as pawns.
TooFab BLM tho rite
TooFab Can we get a retweet? Or nah? FINALLEVEL
TooFab We in hell ya’ll ... this here is pure evil
TooFab I blame systematic racism
TooFab I hope this low life gets the death penalty.
TooFab Oh no his life is matter!
TooFab Oh yeah
TooFab BLM can kiss my ass. Fix your people
TooFab DEFUND THE POLICE
TooFab this is what is out there ladies and gentlemen if we defund cops....
TooFab Chicago is soooooo PEACEFUL
TooFab I blame his neighborhood for not identifying him.
TooFab It’s ok. This will stop soon since they took down those status....
TooFab Why is this on TMZ?
TooFab Not surprised
TooFab Where are the protests
TooFab Who’s gonna start a bail fund for this innocent gentleman
TooFab And this is why BLM
TooFab Soo very sad 😓
TooFab This is soo very sad..just a question caused the end of their life..thoughts and prayers for them and their families...
TooFab This is another reason why we are threatened by police because stupid people with guns killing people. Now guess what more police In the area with itchy trigger fingers because now they can’t tell if you reaching for id or wallet or gun. Nothing against cops not all bad
TooFab All I can say is wow
TooFab He has been arrested already
TooFab Looks like there’s something wrong with him he’s limping and missing his other sneaker when he walked into the store .
TooFab Welcome to Chicago.
TooFab Where is the the BlackLivesMatter people?! Helloooooo?
TooFab Waaaannnnngh cry to the BLM. trump2020
TooFab Double murder he will get life without the possibility of parole for a stupid senseless act . Smh
TooFab Where is BLM?
TooFab Nuevo lanzamiento!!! Espero te guste
TooFab Please defund the police, then maybe Russian and Chinese UN troops can take over to make all the idiots happy
TooFab Just another law abiding teddy bear!
TooFab I can't cry no more... the police is killing us and we're killing ourselves... sometimes i feel God has blessed me w/having cancer do i don't have to deal with this for much longer
TooFab I am taller than that. I have kids come up to me and ask me that every question all over the world. Not even mildly irritated at the question. To shoot someone for that is insane.
TooFab I don’t know, sounds like there’s more to the story… Notice how the victims are always from a great family who’ve never been in trouble… Blah blah blah. Maybe, just maybe these kids were at a BLM protest and had an encounter with the man.
TooFab I swear ppl f*cking suck!
TooFab They’ll catch him. My wedding photos didn’t even turn out this good.
TooFab Absolutely not a proportioned response but I feel dude, it gets annoying getting treated like Paul Bunyan sometimes fr
TooFab He probably thought they were trying to set him up.
TooFab Sad
TooFab I thought black lives mattered now Lol
TooFab
TooFab Give this rat bastard the chair.
TooFab How about we protest this
TooFab When are we gonna have IQ and Mental Acuity tests for gun ownership? Then again. I doubt he bought that legally
TooFab Just another day in Chicago.
TooFab That’s racist to go after this child
TooFab Wtf
TooFab So sad
TooFab
TooFab Defund the police
TooFab This hurts.
TooFab Huge shocker it was in Chicago.
TooFab Some sick azz people out here
TooFab He looks drugged out of his mind
TooFab So much for black lives matter!! One kills 2. Where’s the protests and riots? Seems they only do that when it involves someone of opposite colour. BLM is racist to only protest when that happens with someone of a different colour. They should protest all violence against blacks.
TooFab At least he was practicing proper mask protocol
TooFab Quick send in the Social Workers
TooFab Prayers
TooFab So much for black live matter. One kills 2. Where’s the protesters and riots? They seem to only care when is someone of opposite colour involved. I would them racist for them only protesting when that happens.
TooFab Guy protecting himself from Covid but doesn't care he's going to serve Life in prison now 🙄
TooFab Decent KTD ratio.
TooFab What in the hell was he thinking!?! I know, It has to be drugs. It has to be. The motherfaker just scrambled his brains after taking too much weed+coc+meth+etc+etc... I hope he'll die with same type of death. With this kind, I'm not that humanitarian shit!
TooFab There has got to be more to it
TooFab “Damn that nigga tall as hell” * a few minutes later * * POW!! POW!! *
TooFab A 16 year old and 17 year old asked a 6'3' 19 year old how tall he was and then got shot? Call me crazy but something makes me think this wasn't about height.
TooFab There’s gotta be more to this story .... But oh the safe side I won’t talk to no one ...
TooFab Wait.... so this is about candy or a persons height Just trying to not wrap my head around this....😂. Stupid...breaking news, they were shot by a white man in a pink shirt with white pants while screaming from the book of Allah!! That's a joke, so hopefully ur not butthurt.
TooFab Yep that’s definitely Chicago
TooFab I think it should be in the title that the suspect is a black man who was never in the police..... I read this article waiting for some awkward connection to BLM. Apparently TMZ has moved on from celebrities and is now just reporting anything that appears inflammatory.
TooFab Damn white supremacists. Smh
TooFab I’m not buying this sketchy story lol
TooFab Is that Wiz Khalifa ?
TooFab BLM 😂
TooFab welcome to merica
TooFab You better get used to it.
TooFab If they catch the killer and police officers arrest them, will people be defending the crimal against the cops,?
TooFab This is ‘also’ the violence that needs to be protested! More of this happens daily than a police officer killing a man.
TooFab “What’s your boggle”
TooFab BlackLivesMurder
TooFab Smh 🤦🏾♀️ I’m sick and tired of being tired my black males we already have the police killing our black males and black males killing each other what’s going on
TooFab Well the neighborhood he shot Them in is called TERROR TOWN!!
TooFab WTF Chicago. Too god damn sad.
TooFab Where are the riots? Protest? Vigils?... oh right there wasn’t a white cop involved, I forgot that’s only when BLM actually matter
TooFab So sad. 💔💔
TooFab Agreed. Social Workers plan to meet and help address the shooters needs...
TooFab This is heartbreaking, these babies
TooFab I’ll sit here and wait for Lebron to put these poor kids names on a tee shirt.
TooFab Some people are sensitive about their height. bodypositivity hail
TooFab again death penalty needed. and swift justice. too many people on earth to waste time on scum like this
TooFab TMZ straight up is stirring the racism pot ENDLESSLY I’m unfollowing
TooFab This is awful. This pandemic have bought out the worst kind of demons in people. He need to be locked up, and the key need to be lost on purpose.😠😭
TooFab I wish violence would stop this is sad
TooFab Same thing happamdes in Detroit last weekend couple kids shot and killed for no reason..just ignored by the media..to busy attacking police officers cars with hammers then complaining about them driving away to fast before they could be injured..
TooFab Yo icecube where you at on this one? Such a voice when it comes to blacks being killed by cops but straight silence when shit like this goes down. And when police go around asking anyone for information on the shooter you’ll find cube in a “stop snitchin” Tee
TooFab There’s so much hate in this world. I can only hope my children can help make a difference with their generation. I promise to educate my children and their children
TooFab Hey. BLM only when a cop does the shooting... wherearetheprotests
TooFab Blm
TooFab Dudes is Chicago are sad.
TooFab Was the BLACK guy who killed them on meth and fentanyl just like national hero George Floyd?
TooFab Send a social worker
TooFab Heartbreaking! From the cradle to the grave BLM does nothing other than cherry pick deaths that will further their agenda. These were beautiful young boys. Their lives matted. No 6 day long service for them I suppose. Nothing for the agenda. Prayers for their precious souls.
TooFab Their lives didnt matter
TooFab Do you all realize how many BlackLivesMatter people were affected by this? Don't forget the suspect has a mama, she is hurting right now. If we gunna be real, we need to figure this shit out. And this ain't no Biden vs Trump shit.
TooFab As a tall person who gets that question all the time: his reaction is INSANE!! I hope they chop that mfs legs off when they find him. He didn’t have to bark on those boys like that 🤦🏾♂️🤦🏾♂️
TooFab I felt ill reading this.
TooFab Blm protestors scared to protest there... They might get killed by black men ...if only they had gun laws ...oh wait.
TooFab This is horrible! Omg smh.
TooFab Peaceful protesters
TooFab As long as they weren’t shot by a cop, it’s fine.
TooFab This is extremely sad.
TooFab BLACK LIVES MATTERS
TooFab We Need To Change Ur Minds
TooFab Mayor Lori E. Lightfoot is light on crime and heavy on mediocrity. Chicago loves their Democrats... So, let them enjoy the consequences of their choices.
TooFab WhitlockJason ScoonTv
TooFab Dave17824012 not very nice. And he's not wearing his mask properly.
TooFab Chicago has become this over the years, just enough to say R.I.P
TooFab If only there had been a social worker there to save them! Ugh.
TooFab WTF?!? This is so sad and I really hope he’s caught. Rest In Peace boys 😔
TooFab Where’s BLM
TooFab He was probably on PCP They call it water now Becoming rampant in black community
TooFab not buying the disney spin on events but this is still very tragic.
TooFab Will people say their names during the next protest and condemn the officers for arresting the suspect? Let's defund the police so psychopaths can get away with shooting others.
TooFab Wait, you mean to tell me that BLM is not protesting this? And the MSM is not showing this for hours/days? How can 3 kids be killed over the w/e, but it’s not national news, but one guy is killed by a cop and cities burn?
TooFab WOW
TooFab it's like Hell, how can this be reality. Why de-fund under a false narrative. Those kids needed a cop's presence.
TooFab Disgusting. They need to be smeared like bugs. Anyone who is so hate filled and uncaring should just be destroyed.
TooFab Wow, we can't have this !
TooFab Slender Man strikes... Chicago is full of trigger-happy nihilistic individuals.
TooFab Unreal
TooFab Chiraq - social workers hot on the suspects trail? When do the protests start? chicagosmayor lunatic
TooFab Throw this pathetic human being in a dark padded cell blasting music. Turn the heat up and let him die slowly and painfully
TooFab Human garbage!!
TooFab Sad story. 6'3' is not that tall. He probably thought they were making fun of him.
