9-Year-Old Treveon Johnson Killed Friday Night
24-Year-Old Nicholas Johnson Was Also Shot
Memorial Growing Outside of Home Where Treveon Was KilledKatrina Clark is Treveon Hunter's mother. Tonight her son is gone and she is asking one question, "Why? When you seen the child. If you wanted him, you should have said no, there go a child man, let's not do this but you still did."
Clark says the 9-year-old loved to play basketball, take care of his siblings and just loved being with his family.
It was his uncle 24-year-old Nicholas Johnson who was also shot during the drive by Friday night while hugging the child to protect him from the gun fire. Clark says, "he said he could feel the bullets coming from in back of him, going through the front of him. And one of them had to have traveled from coming out the back going through the front and hitting my baby in the head. It took one bullet and it went through my baby head."
Police are all over the Queensboro neighborhood, which surrounds the 31 hundred block of Frederick Street where the shooting happened. Meanwhile tips pour into the family.
The say they rather whoever did this turn themselves into police rather than have be subject to street justice. "I want them taken care of. Justice through the police or not but I don't want them running free and my baby can't."
Clark goes on to say, "the Lord gone make sure they get taken care of one way or another."
Nicholas Johnson is expected to survive his injuries.
