His name is Antonio Martin. And this teenage boy is the latest victim of a police shooting. This time in Berkeley, not far from Ferguson, Missouri. No comment needs to be made on race or colour of skin as I dont believe racism is the root cause. Its the schoolyard bully mentality adopted by some police officers. That being said, the full story still isnt known. Martin attended Jennings Senior High School in St. Louis, Missouri. Antonio’s mother later told the St. Louis Post-Dispatch that her son was expelled from school, but was trying to gain employment via Jobs Corps, a US program offering free-of-charge education and vocational training to young people. Locals have also reported that the body of Antonio has been blocked from view and according to bystanders, the teen was alive for about 30 minutes after being shot. Police authorities have not yet commented on the alleged incident. Neither has Antonios girlfriend who was with him at the time of the shooting, she remains at the scene but refuses to talk to the press. Protestors have now gathered at the scene.
