Elderly Korean Couple Shot In Missouri By 13-Year Old Shoplifter

This is a horrible story out of Missouri:

The teen had been kicked out of the beauty store when she was caught shoplifting with another girl.

A 13-year-old Missouri girl suspected of shooting and critically wounding a Korean couple in their 70s has surrendered to police.

The teen had shot the parents of the owner of King’s Beauty Supply in Bellefontaine Neighbors on Tuesday after she and another juvenile had been booted from the store earlier in the day for stealing, the Post-Dispatch reported.

When the girls returned to the shop, the couple called police, who found the girls in a nearby parking lot.

One girl was taken into custody on a previous juvenile warrant and the other was released with a warning with the couple’s approval, according to Detective Shawn Applegate.

The couple recovered the stolen items, believed to be hair extensions, and the shoplifting was not reported.

However, the girl who was given the warning returned again to the store and shot the couple, cops said. She came into the store, and “then less than a minute later came running out, swinging in her right hand a revolver as she ran,” a witness told authorities, according to the Post-Dispatch.  [New York Daily News]

So the owners could have pressed charges for shoplifting … but were nice enough to let you off the hook … and this POS goes back to the store and shoots them.

They captured the suspect. She is a 13 year old black primate.

People with African DNA are the most pure of humans you know. I know Koreans think they are the most human, but they are probably the most mixed. This means that Koreans are more primate than any black person.
