“We were all sleeping and all I heard was pow, pow, pow pow pow, and my baby rolled over, blood everywhere, and it’s sad, we all stay in the same community, we can’t even come together for stuff like this. My baby’s suffering, he’s innocent, and it’s hard, it’s hard for me it’s hard for my family, I can’t do nothing but put it in God’s hands,” Jamar’s mom Danielle Davis said. source
