Years from now, those who knew him in life will still remember where they were when they heard he had been murdered (I'll never forget where I was when the news of Brittany Watts' murder broke).



RIP Bobby Christman Though 19-year-old Bobby Christman will be nothing more than a memory, the lesson his death tragically taught those who knew him will never be forgotten.



It will be a lesson haunting his family and friends for as long as they live; one noticeable in the blight and ruin of the once thriving city of St. Louis. [ College student shot, killed near City Museum downtown , Fox2Now.com, 1-11-2015]:

“We had officers within a five to six block radius when this incident happened,” said St. Louis Metropolitan Police Captain Michael Caruso. He said downtown is the most heavily patrolled area of St. Louis. He said the department would review its strategies following this shooting, but doubts anything could have been done differently to prevent the shooting. “Some criminals are just bolder than others,” said Caruso.

“We think it was wrong place, wrong time,” police spokeswoman Schron Jackson said of the lynching of Zemir Begic by multiple black people. The St. Louis Post-Dispatch reported on the Begic slaying these callous words: "Detectives do not believe the attackers took anything but Begic's life."





Add to those words, “Some criminals are just bolder than others.”





Dubbed an "isolated incident" by St. Louis

Police Major Michael Caruso, the shooting death of the white teen by a black suspect could have been avoided if police were allowed to deal with black criminality realistically.

The racial aspect of the murder of Bobby Christman is one

, St. Louis Post-Dispatch, 1-12-15]:

Police from St. Louis and East St. Louis traded gunshots Sunday night in Washington Park with suspects in the fatal shooting downtown earlier that day of a 2013 DeSmet Jesuit High School graduate, police said Monday.

Three suspects escaped on foot after leading police on a short car chase, Illinois State Police spokesman Lt. Dave Bivens said.

Bobby Christman, 19, of St. Louis County was shot during a robbery attempt as he sat in the front passenger seat of a car parked at Lucas and North 15th streets near the Washington Avenue restaurant and entertainment area, police said. A woman, 19, was in the rear seat. Another teen, 17, also was in the car.

The suspect's vehicle pulled up next to Christman's car and a man got out with a handgun, police said. He opened the rear driver’s side door of the parked car and tried to grab the woman’s purse. She resisted, police said. Christman said something to the gunman, who then fired the shot that struck Christman, police said witnesses told them. The gunman then jumped back in a vehicle and fled.

St. Louis Police Chief Sam Dotson said the suspects were in a silver 2004 Chrysler Sebring carjacked downtown last week.

After Sunday's fatal shooting, city police tracked the car to the Washington Park area. About 6:30 p.m. Sunday, the car fled St. Louis and East St. Louis police and someone in the car fired shots at city officers. No officers were hit. Police returned fire but it is not clear if the suspects were wounded.

The suspects bailed out of the vehicle after a short chase and ran off near 50th Street and Caseyville Avenue in Washington Park. Police recovered the car and are analyzing it for evidence.

"They bailed out, ran, and the way (detectives) described it, it was a field of vacant buildings," Dotson said. "And so obviously, it's not our neighborhoods, we're not familiar with it. I think for an officer safety issue, the officer made the right choice not to pursue through an area he's unfamiliar with."

Dotson said officers are hoping the car will lead to the suspects in Christman's death.

Police said Christman was unconscious when they arrived at 12:43 a.m. Sunday. He was taken to a hospital, where he died about 6 p.m.

Christman lived in the 7100 block of Tournament Drive in south St. Louis County.

He was a sophomore at Southeast Missouri State University, where he was a member of Sigma Phi Epsilon Fraternity.

Years from now, those who knew him in life will still remember where they were when they heard he had been murdered.

MetropolitanOr if sundown laws were still allowed to keep the primary racial group responsible for all of the gun crime in the city of St. Louis off of the streets after dark . A large police presence wouldn't be needed then to make the city as safe as the white suburbs for the nocturnal activities of whites in downtown St. Louis; that blacks are allowed to roam free is the reason St. Louis is incredibly dangerous and requires a massive police force to make whites feel safe from the threat blacks pose.Instead, Bobby Christman is dead. As is the future of St. Louis.
