Two teens were shot in an early morning drive-by shooting at 4107 Fagan Street, Chattanooga police say.

The 15-year-old was shot in the neck and leg while the 17-year-old was hit in the right thigh. Both boys were taken to a local hospital where the 15-year-old is listed in critical condition while the 17-year-old is in stable condition, police say.

A fifteen year old kid on the street at 12:30am...where were the parents?
fathers. where are their fathers?
The question of, "where were the parents?" is always asked and it is a valid question. The breakdown is that the parents, grandparents, and great-grandparents of the youth were running the streets and left to raise themselves in exactly the same way these kids are. If you left dogs to fend for themselves for three generations you have wolves. These are just free-range kids who became thugs.
These blacks are always killing each other in drive-by shootings. They are cowards. A real (white) man walks into a salon and kills 7 unarmed women.
Some of you are takling about black people really white are just as bad except,blacks use guns and white use tire tools to beat people and they will eat there own family so don't start about black crime and white crime,black people my be trigger happy but they would never eat there mothers brain or heart and then buried under the house
well at least you all aren't ashamed to admit you are racists.
I though the story said they were standing outside a residence. How does that equate to they were roaming the steets @ 12 a.m.? Reading/comprehension are your friends. Especially comprehension.
That should silence them at least until the next story. Notice, they all jump stories like maggots on rotted meat whenever there's a negative story involving blacks or hispanics? But they scatter like cockroaches when the light is turned on when the story is committed by a {white}? TFP if they get only one comment.
01centare, You talk about comprehension. Thats a joke. Reread the article. It does not say it was their residence. It says "a residence". If it was not their residence then that is how it equates to "roaming the streets @ 12 am". Understand??
What is the big attraction in the Black Community about,"standing," around after midnight? Maybe they should go inside and work on their school assignments for Monday morning.
HAHAHAHAHA! riverman, that is toooo funny!
WAY TO GO. Stick your heads in the sand and act like it really isn't happening to predominantly one race of people. Not just here but in every country. They are animals and anyone in their presence should always be on guard and leave the area immediately. I am all for just letting them kill each other off.
THIS HAPPEN IN BROAD DAYLIGHT AT 11:00 AM GET YOUR FACTS STRAIGHT BEFORE YOU START ASSUMING YOU PEOPLE ARE OFF THE CHAIN !!!!
