    The six juveniles, who police linked to a shooting and robberies in the area on Tuesday morning, led police on a chase in the silver luxury car after officers tried to pull them over, according to Katherine Carter, spokeswoman for the Essex County Prosecutor’s Office.

    When they finally came to a stop in a residential Newark neighborhood, three of the suspects surrendered. One was struck by a police car and pronounced dead at the scene. Two fled into a nearby home, barricading themselves inside.

    They emerged with their hands up after the Newark police SWAT team arrived. The incident ended around 9 a.m., Carter said.

    No other information about the suspects was available, she said.

    I’m sure it won’t be long until the news shows how these were just good boys who were bored during the summer. And then the news will show us pictures of them in cap and gowns from 1st grade. Lovely kids. The cops should have let them keep the Jag to play with. This is what American media has become.
