A Black US teenager who was shot twice after ringing the wrong doorbell has an invitation to the White House once he's recovered, President Joe Biden promised Tuesday, as the suspected shooter, an elderly white man, surrendered to authorities.
Ralph Yarl, 16, was shot twice, once in the head, last Thursday night in the midwestern state of Missouri, afterBiden slammed the incident as another example of the United States' failure to deal with widespread gun violence.
Yarl was released from the hospital and continuing to recover at home, his mother Cleo Nagbe told CBS on Tuesday.He went and rang the doorbell. And he was supposed to stay outside, and his brothers were supposed to run outside, get in the car and they come home. Kansas City Police Chief Stacey Graves said at a Sunday night press conference that the information at the time"does not say that it's racially motivated" and that the investigation was still active.
