Autistic 13-Year-Old Shot Multiple Times By SLC Police – “Tell My Mom I Love Her”
A tragic incident happened last month, a 13-year-old boy named Linden Cameron was having a breakdown, which his mother claims was brought on by his Asperger’s Syndrome.
She called the police, saying that she needed assistance in managing the situation. When the police arrived, they tried to control Linden by ordering him on the ground.
When Linden didn’t obey at first, the officers reportedly did the unthinkable, they opened fire, shooting eleven shots at the boy. The incident took place in Utah. Bodycam footage obtained by TMZ, shows the teenager on a dark sidewalk, falling to the ground after being struck.
Cameron’smother told the cops that Linden was easily triggered by law enforcement and that he may have had a BB gun. She was told that they needed to treat his toy gun as though it were real.
Fortunately, Linden survived the shooting. It’s unclear how many times he was struck but he remains in the hospital with injuries to his shoulder, colon, bladder, ankles, and intestines.
In the clip which has since gone viral, one can hear him writhing in pain after being shot, telling the officer who shot him to deliver a message to his family: “Tell my mom I love her.”
