Black teenager killed by cops. Is this going to be the next George Floyd affair?

GULFPORT, Miss. (AP) — A Black teenager in Mississippi has died days after Gulfport police shot him in the head outside a discount store, and his relatives are questioning officers' actions.
Jaheim McMillan, 15, was shot Thursday. Harrison County Coroner Brian Switzer confirmed to the Sun Herald that the Gulfport High School freshman died Saturday after he was taken off life support at USA University Hospital in Mobile, Alabama. An autopsy is scheduled for Tuesday, Switzer said.
McMillan is survived by his mother, Katrina Mateen. She told WLOX-TV that when she arrived at the store after her son was shot, officers handcuffed her and walked her across the street.
Gulfport police said in a news release that the shooting occurred after they responded to a 911 call about several minors waving guns at other motorists. Officers pulled the minors over in the parking lot of a Family Dollar store.
Gulfport Police Chief Adam Cooper said an officer engaged an armed suspect, since identified as McMillan, resulting in shots being fired. The police department has not released the race of the officer.

Not trying to be racist, but the cops were probably black as well. So no.

Not enough facts to tell how big a deal this will be yet, but yeah, they better hope he was actually armed.

We haven’t heard about it because he was armed. Nothing to see here, move along.

Smelling like it could be justified but way more info needed.

It happened 2 miles from my house, my employees saw the body on ground as they were heading back to the office. It was on the corner of 8th ave and pass rd

Obvious lack of parenting...
Tragic but when kids are raised by the streets they will die in the streets...
Prayers for all involved...

I think your headline needs a correction.

I live 20 minutes from there…fricking unreal 15 yr olds are waving guns around. May as well be another world. I can’t imagine my 16 yr old son being in that position.

Eta: it’s almost as though I haven’t been posting on here for nearly 20 years and you people can’t detect obvious sarcasm.
