A 12-year-old boy was collared for fatally shooting a homeless man in the head more than a month after the victim was found dead on a Florida street, police said.

The boy — identified by WAWS-TV as Sharron Townsend — was collared Thursday for the murder of Thomas Trent, 54, after police identified the gunman in footage from a security camera near the June 28 shooting, Jacksonville Sheriff’s Office Assistant Chief Chris Butler said.

“It’s a horrific event,” Butler told reporters.

“Horrific for the victim ... but also you’re talking about a 12-year-old child.”

Trent’s body was found lying outside an abandoned restaurant in the city’s west side.

Investigators found a surveillance camera a short time later between a dental care office and a tattoo parlor that recorded two young men walking near the site where Trent was killed.

A few minutes later, the footage shows the two suspects running “with their shorts on their heads” towards the back of a strip mall where Trent was shot, according to an arrest report.

Police managed to identify the other boy in the video as a 16-year-old who was being held in jail on an unrelated charge.

The teen identified Townsend as the shooter.

The teen was not considered a suspect, but Butler did not elaborate. He said the younger boy was charged after he admitted to being in the surveillance clip.

“The suspect gave admissions, and he identified himself in the video and being present and involved in the murder,” Butler said.

Police were still trying to determine why Trent was shot.

“Thomas had a heart of gold,” his sister, Dawn McNabb, told the local Fox affiliate.

Yeah that doesn't sound right at all. For all we know, the homeless guy could have attacked them.

 

[no.]

It's disgusting how early kids are getting into that murder life. Around here I've seen plenty of 15 or 16 year old gunners, but 12!? 12 is so fukking early, he must either have been born a complete psychopath or been raised around really despicable people, to be able to straight up shoot someone in the head at twelve.

Surely he's mentally unfit to stand trial, right?
He has to be crazy. right?

Considering the homeless guy's appearance and demeanor, the 12 year old must have feared for his life
