...and then gives no details on why they were there or what happened, even days later. it takes a lot of time to fabricate a story, you gotta account for traffic/ring cameras, witnesses, etc.... :francis:

An 18-year-old high school student who was shot by an agent with the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives on Thursday evening in Aliquippa has died.

The Allegheny County Medical Examiner's Office said that Kendric Curtis, 18, died at Allegheny General Hospital in Pittsburgh a little after 3 a.m. on Friday.

The shooting happened on Waugaman Street at the Linmar Terrace housing complex around 6:20 p.m. on Thursday. The 18-year-old was armed at the time of the shooting, an FBI spokesperson told KDKA-TV on Friday. In a statement Friday evening, Pennsylvania State Police said officers tried to make contact with Curtis, who fled and fired shots at officers. An officer returned firing and shot Curtis, the statement said.

In a statement Thursday night, Pennsylvania State Police said ATF and FBI agents "working in a joint investigation" were involved in the shooting. It was not immediately clear why the agencies were in Aliquippa, and more details surrounding the shooting were not immediately released by authorities.

Aliquippa Mayor Dwan B. Walker said that Curtis was an Aliquippa High School student. A Trauma Support Team will be on-site at the Junior/Senior High School on Friday during student arrival and the district will have resources throughout the day as needed for students.

A neighbor described an emotional and tense scene in Beaver County, highlighted by a large police presence.

A photo of the scene showed at least nine police vehicles near where the shooting happened. Witnesses said they heard multiple gunshots.

"We're frustrated because we don't want this to be a new normal," resident Sandra Pope said.

The Pennsylvania State Police are investigating the shooting. The ATF said in a statement that it is "supporting" the investigation "as needed."

"We're asking for clarity and calmness," Walker said. "We're asking people to search their inner self, take a deep breath, get all the facts before you snap to judgment and quick to punish."

Walker added that he is praying for the victim and his family.

BATF has been known as probably the most racist agency since it's inception.

“We tried to contact a person of interest and now he’s dead” isn’t a statement. They might as well have said “no comment.” :martin:
