Dozens of teens trash Crown Heights store

CROWN HEIGHTS, Brooklyn (PIX11) It wasnt long ago that the knockout game was front and center here in Crown Heights.

A local politician even wrote an open letter blaming the violent spike on a tense relationship between black and Jewish people living here in the neighborhood.

Now there are reports that the latest melee at this gourmet deli here on Caroll Street may have also stemmed from racial tension and the whole incident was captured on video.

The violent mob gathered outside the deli late Saturday night.

Just moments later dozens of teens stormed inside, stealing some items and destroying the store.

Owner Yanki Klein told the Jewish Press that the teens regularly steal from his store and yell heil Hitler. And witnesses say the damage wasnt limited to the store.

The mob also broke into two school buses and vandalized several cars.

Klein says he has made repeated requests to have a police officer placed on the corner, but says those requests have gone unanswered.

Borough President Eric Adams blames the violence on a lack of resources for teens in the community.

So far police have not made any arrests stemming from this incident.

'Point 'em out, knock 'em out' game played in Kroger attack

MEMPHIS, TN (WMC) -

According to a witness, point 'em out, knock 'em out is the so-called "game" behind the infamous Kroger parking lot attack. WMC Action News 5 found another teen who's participated in the past.

"I'm not even going to lie, yeah, when I was younger," said the 11th grader, who we agreed not to identify.

She said that "point 'em out, knock 'em out" is exactly what it sounds like.

"When you're with a group of people, you point somebody out, and then somebody runs and punches them until they fall," said the teen.

It's apparently what prompted the violent September attack outside the Poplar Plaza Kroger during which several innocent bystanders were injured. Nineteen-year-old Raheem Richardson is among a number of suspects.

A 17-year-old witness testified during Richardson's preliminary hearing Monday that someone yelled "point 'em out, knock 'em out" before the teen mob's relentlessly, unrestrained actions that night.

"It's going to provoke somebody to hurt someone's child," said one victim of a similar, yet unrelated, attack following a football game at Crump Stadium.

Memphis police say they are aware of "point 'em out, knock 'em out," and the so-called "knockout game," which has been blamed for fatal attacks on unsuspecting victims elsewhere. It's something that finally gives pause to the one-time teen participant we interviewed.

"Grow up," she said when asked about her advice to other teens who may want to play the game.

Bulldogs, Tamaraws draw inspiration from Final 4 coups

By Jasmine W. Payo |Philippine Daily Inquirer

MANILA, Philippines A day before the UAAP Finals decider, Far Eastern University and National University look back and try to draw inspiration from their respective series that propelled them to the championship showdown.

The Tamaraws and the Bulldogs, each confident of completing a historic title romp, clash in the winner-take-all Game 3 at 4 p.m. Wednesday at Smart Araneta Coliseum.

Both hope to get a boost from their huge Final Four feat two weeks ago, when the Tamaraws dethroned the La Salle Green Archers and the Bulldogs ousted the top-seeded Ateneo Blue Eagles.

Its another do-or-die, so how we prepared and what we did in our previous do-or-die games, we want to have that again, standout guard Gelo Alolino said of the Bulldogs, who survived four no-tomorrow contests this season, including two against the Eagles in the Final Four.

In our minds, we know we have to bring out that kind of game [against Ateneo].

Showing incredible will in every knockout game, the Bulldogs had it in full display again when they forged a rubber match for the crown with a commanding Game 2 triumph, 62-47, last week.

But for the Tamaraws, who took Game 1 of the title series with a 75-70 decision, they want to relive the poise and focus they showed in responding to adversity.

Its on us how well adjust, said FEU coach Nash Racela after the Game 2 loss where the Tamaraws bowed to the Bulldogs for the first time in four games this season.
