14-year-old Brennan Walker, missed his bus and it nearly cost him his life. He went looking for help at a Rochester Hills home on Thursday morning and was confronted by a man with a gun.

Walker was trying to walk the bus route to Rochester High School after he woke up late and missed his bus. His mom had taken his phone away, so he didn't have that with him to get directions. So he knocked on a stranger’s door for help -- and almost paid for it with his life.

"I got to the house, and I knocked on the lady's door. Then she started yelling at me and she was like, 'Why are you trying to break into my house?' I was trying to explain to her that I was trying to get directions to Rochester High. And she kept yelling at me. Then the guy came downstairs, and he grabbed the gun, I saw it and started to run. And that's when I heard the gunshot," he says.

Thankfully, the man missed. Brennan kept running, hid, then cried.

"My mom says that, black boys get shot because sometimes they don't look their age, and I don't look my age. I'm 14; but I don't look 14. I'm kind of happy that, like, I didn't become a statistic," he says in retrospect.

Oakland County Sheriff Deputies arrived soon after to the home on South Christian Hills Drive and took the woman's husband into custody.

Right now that man is being held at the Oakland County Jail.

The retired Detroit firefighter was arraigned Friday afternoon. Jeffrey Zeigler has been charged with Assault with Intent to Murder; and Felony Firearms. He received a bond of $50,000, with conditions, and is due in court again April 24.

God of your baba dey your side

everything's got it's pros and cons in Life. As shitty as 9ja's system is, in scenarios like this, you'll still see people who are readily available and willing to help you with the right directions, but still be watchful sha befr dem direct you enter one chance

Anyways, as regards op's post. the boy was very unfortunate to have knocked on the door of a fvcking racist family. The woman meandered the story because he's black and her murderous husband or whoever the fvck he is wanted to put the icing on the cake by killing him so when the case/news eventually gets in public, we gonna hear talks like; he's a thief, door breaker.
thank goodness he came out alive to narrate his ordeal.

racist people are a bunch of bastards.
humanity supercedes all race.
