A 911 call made during the fatal beating death of 17-year-old Ethan Liming at a school parking lot in Akron, Ohio, prompts more questions about the boy's death.
Officers arrived within three minutes of the first 911 call and found Ethan lying on the ground in the parking lot. Authorities attempted life-saving measures but were unable to revive the teenager, and he was pronounced dead at the scene, Akron Police Chief Steve Mylett told reporters.
Two of his friends got out of the vehicle and started shooting a toy"SplatRBall" gun, which is described as a rechargeable, full-auto and semi-auto water bead gun. The water beads explode when they hit a target. The toy gun is listed as $68 on Walmart's website.Ethan's father said his son has hit him with the toy gun before, and the gel bullets feel like a"rubber band snap.
The two boys playing with the water bead gun then began shooting toward a group of four individuals playing on the basketball court. Eventually, an altercation ensued between the four individuals on the basketball court and the four boys in the parking lot, including Ethan. Police documents previously obtained by Fox News Digital described how suspects Deshawn Stafford and Tyler Stafford"took Liming’s car and drove it to the other end of the lot" when Ethan's friends tried to take him to the hospital, but one of the men’s attorneys cast doubt upon the pair’s intentions when moving the vehicle.
Police arrived at the parking lot near the basketball court that night to find"nobody was on scene," Mylett told reporters.
