No greater love.
Via Boston Herald:
Seventeen-year-old Raekwon Juaquay Brown sacrificed his life when he pushed an elderly woman out of the way of gunfire before he was slain in Wednesday’s daylight shooting near Jeremiah E. Burke High School, the grief-stricken lady told the Herald just hours before a vigil honoring the young hero.
“He saved my life — I have a new life,” the woman, 67, said in Spanish yesterday while tears streamed down her face.
“He was only 17. I’ve lived here 10 years, I’ve never seen anything like this. There needs to be more police here,” she said, showing a wound to her right ankle, where police say she was grazed.
