Washington man arrested after fatally shooting teen who had BB gun
usatoday.com
Myers, who says he's a licensed security guard, was sitting in his car Wednesday to conduct "overwatch" while his son trains because "he has seen numerous crimes occur" in the parking lot, according to the probable cause statement.
The surveillance footage shows Myers approach the teens with a gun in his hand, point it directly at them and then move quickly toward them, police said. One of the boys pulls a BB gun out of his pocket, lays it on the ground and extends his arms out as if to show he has nothing in his hands, police said in the document.
"Immediately after ... it is clear that he has been shot because he abruptly jerks his body away from Myers and falls to the ground," the document says.

I'm sorry, another?
I mean, my high school had at least 1 suicide a year, so it’s not too much of a reach to say that some other event happened resulting in the loss of life.
Maybe it's different from when I was in high school in the 90s, but at least a couple of kids died each year because they were drunk and driving.
Kent is not the best school district...
You would be surprised how many children die because of gun violence. It’s not necessarily at the school, but at the home or situations like this.
Also due to non-gun violence too.
