Black On Black War Among Haitian-Americans May Be Spreading
Jesse Cesar, the one time suspect in the notorious Boynton Beach Mall Christmas Eve homicide, was recently shot and killed in the daytime at a busy east Orange County shopping center.
About 3:40 p.m., Cesar, 22, walked out of All Pro barber shop, and witnesses heard gunshots ring out.
"It sounded like firecrackers," said Mike DeMerchant, 25, who works at an all-terrain vehicle dealership next door.
Workers at the dealership and others found the victim collapsed in front of nearby Johnny's Caribbean Restaurant, shot several times. He was pronounced dead at the scene.
Many are concerned that Cesar's death may be the latest in a chain of gang killings.
The spike in homicides in Palm Beach County during the first quarter of the year was gang-related, officials said. Detectives and medical examiners reported at least five gang slayings in the first three months of this year.
Despite a police crackdown on gangs, there were 25 homicides in the first three months of 2007, up from 24 in the same period last year.
Whether it's New York, LA, or the Dirty South, we keep killing ourselves over meaningless ish.
Wake up Black men. WAKE UP!!!!!!!!!
