Police in Chicago are trying to unravel the mystery
surrounding the death of a 9 year old boy who was shot multiple times in a
neighbour’s backyard.
Antonio Smith ran away from home after her mum failed to get
him a cupcake. According the mother, Brandi Murry, Antonio had called her at work earlier on Wednesday asking about a
treat, reported the Chicago Sun Times. She told
the 9-year-old she would be home soon and denied his request. Upset, he left
the house about 3:45pm.
'He got mad because I didn’t give
him what he wanted,' Murry said.
About an hour later, Antonio was
being rushed to the University of Chicago Comer Children's Hospital, with
gunshots to the chest.
When Murry arrived home and found
Antonio gone, she called police to report him missing and they arrived five
minutes later. Read more of her quotes below.
'My baby, he was a good kid,' his
mother wailed. 'He was a mama's boy. He stayed up under me. He called me every
day. I'm at work, 'Mama, I love you. Mama, can I have this. Mama, can I have
that.
'My boy, he was just an angel.'
This is so sad, may his soul rest
in peace.
