Bold is mine:
MOHNTON, Pa. -- A 65-year-old man was attacked by three boys in Berks County on Wednesday and shot two of them, killing a 16-year-old boy.
The man was riding his bicycle about 11 a.m. on the Thun Trail
near the Bertolet Fishing Dock in West Reading when the boys knocked him
off his bicycle in an apparent robbery attempt, police said.
Two of the boys were assaulting the man when he pulled a handgun and shot them, police said.
Oh man, I'd LOVE to be able to see the look on their faces when he pulled that pistol and started shooting. I'm guessing that one day, technology will advance to a point where we'll all be able to video everything we see without holding a camera at all times. Until then we'll have to make do with our imagination. Here is an artist rendering of what I imagine it might have looked like.
Yeah, too late, mfr.
A
16-year-old boy was pronounced dead at the scene. The other boy was
taken to an area hospital with a single gunshot wound and is expected to
survive.
Police said they took the uninjured boy and the victim
to the Cumru Township police station for questioning.
They consulted
Berks County District Attorney John Adams, released the victim and sent
the boy to the Youth Detention Center.The name of the boys and the man were not released. From here:
Tsk, such a shame. Now the idiot can't keep robbing old men who are minding their own business. These stories are so heartwarming to me.
