A white man in Baton Rouge allegedly targeted and killed two black men. Ana Kasparian, Hasan Piker, and Brett Erlich, the hosts of The Young Turks, break it down. Tell us what you think in the comment section below. https://tytnetwork.com/join/
"Authorities in Baton Rouge said Tuesday that they have arrested a white man in the fatal shooting of two black men in separate incidents last week. Police have described the shootings as potentially racially motivated.
On Tuesday, while announcing the arrest and charges, officials also said that the suspect may be linked to a third shooting last week, as well — this one targeting a home with black residents. Two people were inside, but they were unharmed, Hillar C. Moore III, the district attorney in East Baton Rouge, said at a news conference.
Moore said the man in custody — Kenneth James Gleason — is thought to have fired at the two men killed last week while inside his car before getting out, standing over them and firing additional shots.
"It appears to be cold, calculated, planned," Moore said, adding that the attacks targeted "people who were unarmed and defenseless.”
