YAY Apopka! Trying but failing to wriggle out of the gutter.
Best barbecue joint in Central Florida is about half a mile from there. We had post-sig-shoot get together there when BRL was in town.

I don't know who 'Keldon Lewis ' is, but if that wasn't reincarnated Michael Jackson moon-walking while gangsta-shooting in that video, I'll eat my hoodie.

"One of the conditions of his release was that he was to return to school" "He was turned away when he arrived."
Now, what could possibly be the basis for that?.....
Because son, it is what you are supposed to do.

Watch: Alleged shootout between Apopka High School students
APOPKA, Fla. - 9 Investigates obtained video that police said shows a shootout between two Apopka High School students after they left school Friday afternoon.
Investigators said Keyrontae Harrell, 17, fired a gun near West Summit Street and North Lake Avenue while his ex-girlfriend, Zari Gant, was driving away from him.
A recording showed Keldon Lewis, 17, raising a handgun and pointing it at a silver Chrysler being driven by Harrell, police said. Seven gunshots were heard.
Police said Harrell fired shots first.
"It shouldn't have erupted in gunfire," Apopka police Deputy Chief Randy Fernandez said. "They're all juveniles, and they came from the school, which is even more disturbing."
Records said Harrell approached Gant near their school and told her she wouldn't be with anyone else.
Gant tried to lose him when she drove away from the school parking lot with Lewis and two other passengers.
Police said Harrell chased Gant and parked his vehicle in front of her before getting out of the car to point a gun at her.
9 Investigates' Karla Ray on Wednesday traveled to Gant's home, where she saw a car with at least three bullet holes parked in the driveway. A woman in the home declined to discuss the incident.
Investigators said that although Gant is considered a victim of domestic violence, she will also face charges, because she brought to school the gun that Lewis fired.
No one at Lewis' home would discuss the incident. An arrest report said one of the conditions of Lewis' release was that he return to school Monday, but the school turned him away.
Harrell is being held at the Orange Regional Juvenile Detention Center

Keyrontae? Really?
Now there's a kid destined to be a CEO.
Maybe he should cover himself in tattoos as well to up the odds and pad his CV a little.

Well, guess so, because she definitely wasn't struck by a smooth criminal.

The original video, in the OP, is definitely nothing close to "Point Blank". With a handgun, I think point blank starts at about arms length...which I've seen misses at during training.
We had an exchange of gun fire a while ago with the prep and an officer trading shots from opposite sides of a full sized American car...lots of shots fired before she scored a hit and put him down.
My favorite "point blank" shooting scene in a movie is Wesley Snipes and Michael Biehn in "The Art of War" (2000)
