2nd Man Charged in Slaying of Teen

Larnell Allen, 19, has been arrested and charged in connection with the November 8th murder of 17 year old Alonzo Sharps. Sharps was walking home from the corner store with a friend when a group of men began yelling at the two youths and then opened fire with no apparent provocation, killing Sharps, and injuring his friend. Sharps was a senior at Spingarn, and had planned to attend college in either New York, or Florida. Allen's co-defendant, Kwan Kearney (also 19) has been charged with murdering another man within the same week.

The Wards of DYRS. Now that topic is absolutely begging for its own reality tv show! That is if the show's "talent" agree not to kill each other, show staff and producer's, innocent residents walking to the store, etc.
