Prosecutors in Kansas City, Missouri, are holding a news conference on the investigation into the shooting of Ralph Yarl, a Black teenager who was shot by a homeowner last week when he went to the wrong house to pick up his siblings.
A short time earlier, Kansas City police said a case file had been submitted to the Clay County Prosecutors Office "for their review and determination of charges" in the matter.
The 16-year-old was seriously injured in the shooting Thursday night. Attorney Ben Crump, who is representing the family, said the homeowner shot the teen in the head and then shot him a second time after the boy fell to the ground.

In the past year, over 135 million passengers traveled to the U.S. from other countries. To infectious disease experts, that represents 135 million chances for an outbreak to begin. To identify and stop the next potential pandemic, government disease detectives have been discreetly searching for viral pathogens in wastewater from airplanes. Experts are worried that these efforts may not be enough.
