Police Arrest 4 Suspects Between The Ages Of 12 And 14 After A Teen Girl Was Violently Stabbed To Death At A Louisiana Walmart And Entire Incident Was Streamed Online
Police arrested four pre-teens and teens ages 12 through 14 after a 15-year-old girl was stabbed to death at a Lake Charles, Louisiana, Walmart on Saturday.
What are the details?
According to a report from ABC News, authorities responded to the Walmart on Saturday evening for calls of a fight and discovered that a 15-year-old girl had been stabbed.
The stabbing reportedly took place during a fight with four other girls, all of whom were allegedly younger than the teen victim.
First responders transported the young girl to a local hospital, where she died.
In a statement, the Calcasieu Parish Sheriff’s Office said that the motive behind the fight and subsequent attack is unknown.
Calcasieu Parish Sheriff Tony Mancuso said that the kids reportedly “stole knives from the actual store where they were at.”
“It is really heartbreaking when we have to come in and pick up the pieces because so many families are damaged after this,” he added.
“Our whole case unfolded before us through live Facebook and Instagram,” Mancuso revealed. “We have videos of everything that took place and it’s very disturbing. The whole murder was played out on [social media] so, again, there appeared to be no remorse. It was very cold to see 12, 13, 14, and 15-year-olds acting this way and we as a society can’t tolerate it. We cannot let this plague take over our community.”
Mancuso added, “This is the third homicide in six months that we’ve had that involved juveniles that range from 11 to 16 years old. They come from all backgrounds, all races. This is just a problem that we are having with kids having access to weapons, or stealing weapons.”
According to KPLC-TV, the fight may have started at a movie theater before resulting in the Walmart fatality.
All four juveniles were booked into a local juvenile detention center. Authorities charged at least one juvenile with second-degree murder and charged the other three girls with principal to second-degree murder.
The investigation remains ongoing, and Mancuso said that there could be further arrests in the case.
KATC-TV on Sunday reported that Mancuso and parish law enforcement will aggressively enforce curfews set by state and local laws, which, at the time of this reporting, are 11 p.m. until 5 a.m. Mondays through Thursdays, and midnight to 5 a.m. on weekends, local time.
“This is not something we can police our way out of,” he added. “I just don’t feel like this is a police matter. This is a parenting issue. People need to know where their kids are. They need to know what’s going on in their lives. We’re going to take some aggressive steps. This is going to be parish-wide, every city, we’re all going to be on the same page. We’re going to have zero tolerance on curfew violators.”
Mancuso said that it’s up to parents to take control.
“They have to,” he explained. “We can’t do this. We can arrest them, but that’s not going to solve the problem. It’s going to take parenting; knowing where their kids are, what they’re involved in, what they’re doing. You’re dropping kids off, they’re not supervised.”
“We’re asking everybody to step up and get involved,” he pleaded. “All of us: parents, grandparents, store owners. We can’t let this happen, because it’s going to get worse and it’s going to get completely out of control. We as a society cannot tolerate this behavior. We cannot sit back and let this happen.”
Any people with information on the case are asked to call the Calcasieu Parish Sheriff’s Office at (337) 491-3605.

Sentence the parents right along with their heartless kids for at least half the time of what their kids get sentenced to and that will send an immediate message to all other parents, that you do not use Walmart or malls to GD baby sit your kids, PERIOD!! Malls need to be vigilant in this task as well. It is pretty easy to tell when the parents aren’t shopping with their kids!! Parents will start to take responsibility for their kids upbringing, as they are 100% responsible for them and how they act as kids!! This stuff is 1-2nd grade knowledge about how to treat others!! These kids somehow didn’t get it or they willingly forgot it!! Understand this, having happened INSIDE WALMART; how could no one have not witnessed this horrendous act & stepped in to help this girl?? Society is complicit in the actions of these kids!! ANTIFA, & BLM in Soc. Media & on the news telling people violence is justified are just as guilty as the parents that watch it all and feel the same way and that is where these kids get the idea that all of this crap is ok!! You are all F***^ng JUST AS GUILTY HERE, and deserve to be charged with aiding and abetting murder!! So, get it straight & fix it by LEARNING HOW TO PARENT DAMN IT OR MORE OF THIS CRAP WILL KEEP HAPPENING TO YOUR OWN KIDS AND YOU ONLY HAVE YOURSELVES TO BLAME!!! DO YOU HEAR ME ANTIFA, BLM, & MSM???? WORDS & ACTIONS ALL HAVE CONSEQUENCES!!! SO F)(&(&()*&)G STOP YOUR GD SHIT ALREADY!!!
What do these Politicians and Police expect, they see adults burning down cities, robbing and looting business’s, beating and killing innocent people and Police , no arrests and when there are arrest, judges let them out with no bail, and no one is held responsible, so I guess these “young kids” , think that this is the new “WOKE” !
they HAD BETTER get murder charges against them and tried as adults, these little f’s are going to be growing up REAL FAST in prison
