'Michael Mason Jr. was 16 years old. A life of promise cut down for something stupid. Listening to the grief and the wailing from his family — it pierces your soul.' The father of a man shot at Castleton Square Mall earlier this week speaks with WRTV.
"[I'm feeling] a myriad of emotions: anger, grief, shock," Smith told WRTV's Nicole Griffin."These are some of the things that you just don't expect to happen ... to get that news, your heart just drops."Smith Sr. said his son and two others were leaving the mall and walked up to a car identical to their own.
"When the young man started to pull at the back door, my son said he noticed that that wasn't his car," Smith Sr. said."So he said, 'Hey, this, that's not my car.'.. Immediately somebody started shooting at them from our inside of a car outside of a car shooting in them.""Michael Mason Jr. was 16 years old. A life of promise cut down for something stupid," Smith said."Listening to the grief and the wailing from his family — it pierces your soul.
Smith says his son is in stable condition but has a long road to recovery ahead. He has already had multiple surgeries and will need more.
