A 14-year-old boy was shot dead while painting over gang graffiti in a California park — with his horrified family learning about it through social media.

Benny Gutierrez was with several friends painting over the graffiti in El Dorado Park on Monday night when several shots were fired from a car in the parking lot, officials told KTLA.

The 14-year-old was hit once and pronounced dead at the scene — with his family only finding out six hours later through social media, they told the local outlet.

“My heart dropped because that’s my baby,” Benny’s older sister, Crysta Gutierrez, told KTLA. “I just couldn’t believe it because this pain is so unbearable.”

Mutual funds, one individual bank stock, lots of CDs and I own upscale apts and a office building

Besides if it crashes ala 1929 it does not matter, everyone will be in the same boat

And if we have a 1929 type crash, you’ll have an office building to jump out of

I'm not going to fault them over this. Social distancing works for colds why not covid? It was the beginning of covid and no one knew what we were dealing with
Hindsight is always 2020 and easy to go back and criticize.

It doesn't take a genius to understand that transmission takes place more easily with contact or close proximity, especially in confined spaces. I know two people who got Covid after 20 minutes or so in a car with a person in a non-symptomatic stage of Covid, myself being one. Maybe 5 feet would have been proved adequate if tested, or maybe 6 feet was too close.  Common sense and experience still demonstrate that untested does not prove distance is irrelevant. As gotchas go, this one is gnat-straining.
