UPDATE: 15 year old Loviet Nushawn Edwards surrendered tonight at the Law Enforcement Center, where he was charged with two counts of murder in the deaths of 16-year-old Tykiah Palmer and her unborn baby. He was also charged with possession of a firearm during the commission of a crime.
A press release from Lt. Scott Peebles explains what happened:
This evening at about 6 p.m., the Richmond County Sheriff’s Office responded to a shooting call at 2156 Ramblewood Drive. Upon arrival, officers learned that a 16 year old female had been shot . The victim was taken to MCG where she later died. The victim was approximately 7 months pregnant. An emergency caesarian was performed, but the child died a short while after the procedure.
While the investigation is still in the initial stages, the following has been learned: Edwards and the victim were involved in a verbal altercation in the roadway near the front of Edwards’ residence. At some point during the altercation, Edwards produced a handgun and shot at the victim multiple times, striking her at least once in the torso. There is no indication that the victim and Edwards have ever been involved in a romantic relationship. There is also no indication at this time that the incident is gang related.
Edwards will be charged as an adult.

ReplyDeleteFREE LOVIET EDWARDS.PRT(22)-it was an accdient.

ReplyDeletean accident...i really doubt this was an accident...really what kind of punk feels the need to shoot a girl, and then on top of that she was pregnant...that's one LAME ass boy, that thought he was "gangsta" with a gun..well there are no guns where hes at now, so he'll see how tough he really is..
ReplyDeleteYou can't make me believe this was an accident! How do you accidentally shoot someone? This guy needs to be tried as an adult and get what he deserves. My thoughts and prayers go out to this young lady's family and hope they can get on with their lives one day.
ReplyDelete"During that altercation,it became physical he pulled out a gun and shot at her multiple times," says Lt.Scott Peebles. "We know that he hit her at least one time." Accident i think not
ReplyDeleteI really hate when people be talking about free somebody that you know did something wrong..thats so stupid...how ignorant can you get..lets be real if that was your sister would you be saying the same thing..H*** NAW...the gun did not go off by itself so how was it an accident
ReplyDeleteWhere are the programs for these kids before they commit crimes like this? Oh! We don't have Boot Camps or programs to help these kids reform, just baby prisons to prepare them for the real deal. Yet everyone is quick judge them. Let's build a Baseball Stadium, Croc Center or use money for something that only put money in the rich pockets. Give the troubled kids programs that work.
ReplyDeleteJust lock this POS up for the rest of his life.
