Would I/you be this brave?
Number 24 is Zaevion Dobson.
He was a high school football player in Knoxville, Tennessee.
(That’s his brother Zack next to him)
Earlier this week he dove on top of three girls to shield them from a random shooting.
None of the girls was injured.
But unfortunately Zaevion was killed.
One of the people he saved was a young girl named Faith.
And she later tweeted:
“He died laying on top of me.
I love him.
That’s my brother man.
Rest easy Zae.
I’LL NEVER FORGET YOU.”
The shooting happened when three men drove up and just starting firing away.
The Police Chief got choked up as he talked about it.
He said:
“Unfortunately, they picked a random group of young men and women who were just hanging out and trying to prepare to celebrate the holiday.”
Zaevion was only 15.
And yet his first thought was to save others.
That to me is amazing.
Zaevion was also a mentor to others through the 100 Black Men of Greater Knoxville chapter.
And now he’s gone.
For absolutely no reason.
What is wrong with people?
What kind of person drives up and just starts shooting at a group of random people?
As Zaevion’s brother tweeted:
“Really man.
Why u have to take him away from me.”
It’s the same question a lot of people are asking right now.
Retweet to spread the word please. It would mean alot
