Two boys, one 15 and the other 16-years-old charged with murdering a 17-year-old boy in a park.
For 17-year-old Jatavious Williams December 07, 2018, proved to be his Pearl Harbor Day, as he played in Blakey Park in the 600 block of SW 14th Avenue in Homestead, Florida.
In fact, young African-Americans living in some urban areas are more likely to be killed in the streets of Miami than those serving in the military in war-torn countries such as Iraq and Afghanistan.
On Sunday, December 07 just after 5:00 p.m. two teenage savages, one named Eddy Moore, 16 and Keyondric Daniels, 15 murdered another teenager only for sitting or playing in the park.
The question remains: From whence did they get the gun(s) to commit such a heinous crime?
In a news conference Miami-Dade police Director Juan Perez said since the New Year started, they have arrested five teens for murder.
Both Moore and Daniels have lengthy criminal records for violence; including battery, grand theft auto, and armed robbery. Moore has faced charges including drug possession, trespassing and carrying a concealed weapon.
The shooting of Jatavious Williams brings the number to two the number of 17-year-olds shot in Miami-Dade since the new year began.

Police are offering a $25,000 reward for information leading to the killer(s).
