Teenage Black Boy Shot Dead by Officer After Committing Robbery in Colorado, USA

A 14-year-old black boy, Jor’Dell Richardson, was caught by police after robbing a store in the US state of Colorado with an air pistol on June 1. After being knocked down by a police officer, Richardson was shot by another officer named Roch Gruszeczka for reaching for his gun, which Gruszeczka assumed to be real. The young boy lost his life after being hospitalized, and Gruszeczka was placed on paid administrative leave.

Aurora Police Department Chief Art Acevedo said it was impossible for police to tell if the boy’s gun was real or fake by comparing photos of an air gun with a real gun.

It is not yet known whether the boy pointed the air pistol at the police and raised his hand to the gun. An investigation was launched into the death of the child.

Turkish Foreign Minister Hakan Fidan said the recent peace talks in Istanbul have brought a new dimension to diplomatic efforts on Ukraine and proposed a leaders’ summit hosted by President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan. “A summit with leaders from Russia, Ukraine, and the US could help achieve a long-term ceasefire,” he said.

Speaking at a joint press conference in Kyiv with Ukrainian Foreign Minister Andrii Sybiha, Fidan emphasized Türkiye’s ongoing diplomatic efforts, stating that President Erdoğan has been working actively since the war began. He added that talks in Istanbul on May 16 led to concrete results, including a prisoner swap.

Fidan shared insights from his prior visit to Moscow and said Russia is open to further talks on June 2. He stressed the importance of continuing momentum and involving international actors to build common ground for peace.

Fidan is also scheduled to meet with President Volodymyr Zelenskyy, Andriy Yermak, Rustem Umerov, and representatives of the Crimean Tatar and Gagauz Turkish communities.
