Burna Boy To Cover Funerals For Victims Of Stockton Birthday Party Shooting
Nigerian music star Burna Boy has pledged to cover the funeral expenses for the four victims killed in a tragic shooting at a children’s birthday party in Stockton, California. The “Last Last” singer told TMZ on Tuesday, December 2, that supporting the families is “the very least he can do, considering the lifetime of pain the parents face ahead.” He first learned about the tragedy during The Breakfast Club’s Front Page News segment and later contacted Wack 100, who connected him with Stockton’s vice mayor, Jason Lee. At a prayer vigil for the victims, Lee delivered a passionate message to the alleged gunman: “It’s never been gangster to kill kids. Never. You went in a birthday party and shot people’s children. Parents brought their children out and they left with medical examiners. That is not human.” The shooting occurred on Saturday night, November 29, during a birthday celebration for a two-year-old girl at a banquet hall attended by over 100 people. The gunman opened fire inside the hall and continued into the street. Eleven people were injured, and four were killed, including children aged 8, 9, and 14, as well as a 21-year-old man. The victims were identified as 8-year-old Journey Rose Reotutar, soon-to-be 9-year-old Maya Lupian, 14-year-old Amari Peterson, and 21-year-old Susano Archuleta. Authorities are still searching for the shooter, and a $25,000 reward has been offered for information leading to his arrest.
