The man who shot and killed a 16-year-old boy who tried to rob him at gunpoint in St. Paul will not be charged, prosecutors said.
The Ramsey County attorney's office said Wednesday that it was declining to charge the man, whose name has not been made public.
Lavauntai Broadbent of West St. Paul was fatally shot July 31, ending an apparent robbery spree for the teen and several friends.
In declining to charge the man for fatally shooting Broadbent, the county attorney's office said it "has concluded that no criminal charges are appropriate regarding Broadbent's death as the use of deadly force was legally justified."

Maybe common sense isn't common or sensible.

that's what- three times now?
I don't condone murder but I do believe in self defense. I know there are some who cannot differentiate between the two.

Very tone deaf in every group and forum he visits.
I'm surprised MIRT hasn't had a talk with him yet. Maybe they have?
