DailyKenn.com — 13-year-old Jayda Woods-Johnson died after being struck by stray gunfire at a Linwood, WA mall.
16-year-old Samuel Gizawmale will be charged with murder, police said.
The victim was shot when an altercation erupted between two groups of teens, during which a male teen pulled out a handgun and fired at least one shot. The victim was not involved in the conflict.
Reports did not mention the racial composition of the groups.
About 52 percent of homicides are committed by blacks, according to FBI statistics. Blacks comprise about 13 percent of the country's population. Considering most homicides are committed by males, we can assume that nearly half of all homicides can be attributed to black males; about 7 percent of the population. Then, considering very young and very old males seldom commit homicides, we estimate that about half of America's homicides are committed by young black males who comprise about five percent of the country's population. That is, about five percent of the population — young black males — commit about half of all homicides.
