1 killed, suspect beaten by mob, arrested November 19, 2013 In Tegucigalpa, Honduras, Taxi driver Benjamin Alvarez Moncada was shot by a boy not at random, but under orders as a terrorist act from criminals to terrorize drivers who defied demands for protection money. a 15-year-old sidled up to his taxi with a revolver and fired three shots, hitting him in the chest, ear and neck. Then, the boy in a green shirt and baggy pants ambled away as casually as he had arrived. A driver began to shout and took off after the shooter, quickly joined by other bystanders and a policeman. As the boy broke into a run, an onlooker stuck out his leg and tripped him a block from the taxi stand, a witness recounted. The officer grabbed him and returned him to the scene....The extortion began six years ago. Each week, the collective hands an envelope with 5,500 lempiras -- about $260 -- to a boy who collects it on behalf of a criminal ring. ,, Last Thursday this same boy came to the taxi stand and pointed a pistol at the chest of another colleague. He pointed, but he didn't shoot. When cornered by crowd, big group of people piled on top of the boy and began to beat him with their hands and sticks
May explain other boys doing seemingly senseless crimes that make sense if they were doing it for somebody else.
