Amidst a basket ball game gone wrong, one teen did what is right.

Last weekend about 300 people were assembled in the Tony Aguirre Community Center on West Pennway Street in Kansas City to watch a basket ball game between DeLaSalle High School and the Southeast Community Center team.

In the fourth quarter an argument broke out between two groups of people in the stands. At one point guns were drawn and 8 people starting firing.

As the hail of bullets sped across the hall, 19 year old basket ball player Jullaion Jones quickly stepped off the court, pushed 6 year old Desean Merritt to the floor, and covered him with his body.

Jullaion kept protecting the little boy like this even when a bullet grazed him in the leg.

“Jullaion moved me and hided me in the corner, and covered his body over mine.”
– Desean Merritt, 6

His father is grateful for the kind, potentially life saving act.

“I almost get teary-eyed just thinking about it.

It could have been worse than it was, God was really good that nothing happened to anyone.

I’m glad He put Jullaion there to do what he did.”
– Sean Merritt

In total 5 people were injured. Police said all the injuries are non-life-threatening.

thats crazy ....argument like that break out during a basketball game. good for the guy who showed some courage to protect someone younger instead of running off to protect himself.

there are real heroic and courageous people :)

Another great example of how sports fans are all racists and haters.
