Mason Stromberg said; "The family is literally begging people to stop rioting looting and burning. The violence has nothing to do with the boy who was shot, people are merely using his death as an excuse to score some free shit. Shameful behavior, and no way to respect his life. Shame on every one of you participating in this."
