Karon Blake's last words reportedly were, 'I'm a kid, I'm a kid,' before a Washington, D.C., employee fatally shot him in early January.

Karon Blake's last words reportedly were,"I'm a kid, I'm a kid," before a Washington, D.C., employee fatally shot him in early January.

Lewis, who had heard a noise outside his home, exited his front door and eventually fired one shot at the getaway car, causing Blake and the other person to run on foot. Lewis allegedly shot Blake multiple times, using a legally registered gun with a concealed-carry permit. The Metropolitan Police Department has revoked his permit and will confiscate the lawfully purchased firearms on his property.

"I think the biggest grievance is that the first shot that was fired was actually fired at someone who was sitting in a vehicle, who was not an immediate threat to the person who fired the shot," Contee said.
