Authorities say three other victims, including a police officer, were also wounded.
A 15-year-old boy killed in a shooting at an unpermitted Washington, D.C. concert on Sunday was yelling for his mother before his death, a witness said. Authorities say three other victims, including a police officer, were also wounded in the shooting, which occurred at around 6 p.m. at the Moachella music festival that commemorated Juneteenth. Witness Daniel Dyson told local news station Fox 5 DC that he was near the 15-year-old, who has not been identified, when the teenager was shot.
“He was screaming out for his mom,” Dyson said. “And it’s hurtful to hear that man. And no one was able to help him.”
Dyson added that it “bothers” him that the teenager was killed.
“It don’t matter what you color is — your race, what kind of uniform you’re wearing,” Dyson told the TV outlet. “It needs to come to a stop. And if it don’t it’s going to be innocent kids dying every day because people don’t want to do this.
