DID U HEAR: ASAP YAM DEAD AT 26
Steven Rodriguez, better known to the Hip Hop world as A$AP Yams has died.
Details behind his death are currently unknown, but members of the mob such as A$AP Ferg, Bari and Rocky have spoken out on social media about their friend. The 26-year old founded the mob with A$AP Bari and A$AP Illz in 2007. After meeting Rocky in 2008, the group began to grow bigger and they found success after the release of Rocky's mixtape, Live. Love. A$AP.
Yams made a name for Rocky and the other members of the mob on his Tumblr page. In an interview with the New York Times, he credited the page to his success and called Rocky "Luke Skywalker" to his "Yoda."

UPDATE: Extended Video Footage Shows Cleveland Police Handcuffing Tamir Rice's Sister
After three weeks of refusal the city of Cleveland has finally released extended footage from the shooting death of Tamir Rice. The 15 minute video (which you can see below) shows Tamir's 14-year-old sister, Samaria, being apprehended by police shortly after the shooting. Samaria ran to her brother's side when she heard the shots. Police forced her to the snow-covered ground, handcuffed her, and escorted her to a squad car.
Walter Madison, an attorney for the Rice family, called the video "shocking and outrageous."
"This has to be the cruelest thing I've ever seen," he said.
The footage also confirms the police officers (including the shooter, who was previously foundunfit for duty) stood around for four minutes until an FBI agent who was nearby came in to administer first aid. It wasn't until 13 minutes after the shooting that Tamir was taken away on a stretcher.
"No one thinks that it's appropriate to try to save him," Madison said. "The first person who does is not affiliated with the Cleveland police department. ...This is the level of service that makes people very upset and distrustful of law enforcement."

CAUGHT ON CAM: Body Camera Shows Cop Shoot Elderly Man Holding an Axe
The above video shows a Black police officer shoot and kill an elderly Black man in Selma, Alabama.
A group of police arrived at the scene in response to a report of disorderly conduct, where 74-year-old Ananias Shaw was walking through the streets holding an axe in his hand.
Officers pursued him and demanded that he "put the axe down" numerous times, but Shaw refused, and instead taunted them to shoot him. Just before the fatal shot was fired, Shaw screamed out at the officer, "shoot it!" to which the officer complied.
This case was taken before a grand jury and the officer was not indicted for killing Shaw. Some people who have viewed this footage have questioned why out of the 5:21 clip, none of the officers pulled out a taser and shot Shaw with that instead of using lethal force. The shooting occurs at the 3:50 mark.
We warn you, the video is graphic.
