2 losses in our community

We have lost a young man of 13 yrs of age, and one person was recently found in the woods of our community, most likely beaten to death. And earlier on today a young minor was either shoved/jumped from a moving vehicle.
I ask for prayer for our community, my heart is hurt and I am so sad for the families that lost a loved one tonight. I pray for peace and comfort to those that are close to the people and I ask for justice to be served in the situation of the one unsure if it was a homicide, if so I pray for justice.
In Jesus name.

the person who was a minor that jumped/shoved out of car, is in police custody, for verification and medical check up and questioning whether or not he was shoved/jumped.
He had minor injuries. I don't think we will get info on who he is, but that is small compared to what happened to him. I pray for his safety, cause we don't know if it was gang related, or family that did this to him.
our community is small and we all know each other. So all things affect us one way or another. Just sharing.

we have added another homicide to our losses in our community, 2 homicides in 2 weeks, how much more can a person handle, I am crying for our people, because here every one is connected one way or another. I feel so heartbroken right now. My heart can't take anymore hurt right now. I love my land, community, and people, this is so hard and I am barely at work. I am so sad.
Whyyyy!!!!?????

Today I am going to the funeral of my uncle. I grew up down the street from him. I feel like all the people who hold the traditions of our people are leaving, and he was one of the ones our family looked to and up to for guidance in our life.
I will miss him dearly.
