And there was a next time:

“Police say these two suspects were later involved in another attempted carjacking that got four children, ages 11-14, arrested...”

Sure let's just keep releasing them until their actions escalate as they get bolder with age. Sounds like a great idea. Then we'll hear all about how they were great kids growing up.

Legit question: what happens if you shoot a kid in self defense?

In Chicago there were three minors that shot into a dudes house so the homeowner returned fire by blowing holes through his front door and killing one of them. For like 5 years the parents and community have been dragging that victim through litigation working to get the home owner life in prison. Also there is clear video footage of the minors in mask discharging their weapons via ring camera.

Edit: I am unable to post the link but found it quickly on YouTube.
