It's always sad when a young person dies

As a mother, I am always saddened to hear of the untimely death of a young person like Kiwane Carrington. My thoughts and prayers are certainly with the family and friends of everyone involved with this unfortunate situation.

However, with all of the finger pointing and blame being cast about with regard to Mr. Carrington' death, I cannot help but wonder why no one has mentioned the neighbor who first called the police. If these two young men were welcome in the home in question and known in the neighborhood, why were the police even called?
