Ralph Yarl, a Black teenager who was shot in the head and arm after ringing the wrong doorbell in Kansas City, walked at a brain injury awareness event on Memorial Day
The teenager and his family attended the “Going the Distance for Brain Injury” event, walking in the 1.5-mile race, according to CNN affiliate KMBC. It appears to be Ralph’s first major public appearance since the shooting. In April, Ralph went to the wrong address to pick up his younger siblings and was shot by an 84-year-old White homeowner after he rang the man’s doorbell, authorities said.
” Nagbe thanked the community for their support at the event, saying, “It takes a community, it takes a family, it takes the support group, it takes all of that,” according to KMBC. The event was organized by the non-profit Brain Injury Association of Kansas and Greater Kansas City.
