Ralph Yarl, the Kansas City Black teenager who was shot twice after ringing the wrong doorbell, is remarkably back at home recovering and receiving love from a lot of people.
Ralph’s GoFundMe has surpassed $3.4 million dollars enabling his family to establish a trust for him to ensure that the money will be available to him when he needs it.
Ralph was shot by 84-year-old White male Andrew Lester when he went to his house and rang his doorbell to pick up his twin brothers, but Ralph mistakenly went to the wrong house.
Andrew came to the door and shot Ralph once in his head and once in his chest area at point-blank range.
The police arrived and questioned Andrew for 20 minutes but did not arrest him that day.
Andrew was eventually arrested and charged with assault in the first degree and armed criminal action.
Attorney Ben Crump says the charges don’t match the crime.
