Kobe Jones of Gary, Indiana, was known as a happy kid who often joked and enjoyed friends and family. However, that same jovial spirit led to him being shot to death.

According to reports by ABC 7, Jones, 13, was outside with friends when one of his neighbors began yelling in anger. Apparently, the man and his girlfriend were victims of a home burglary. The two began knocking on doors and asking neighbors if anyone knew about the crime. When they didn’t get any answers, the man yelled as a small crowd looked on.


Jones laughed at the man’s emotional outburst. The man became more upset and approached the teenager and shot him nine times. The man and his girlfriend fled the scene as their neighbors looked on in shock.

The couple returned to the scene of the crime hours later and turned themselves in to police. Police said they will not file any charges until at least Monday.
