Boy, 15, Dies in Dispute Over an iPod

NEW YORK (July 3) - Two teenagers were under arrest Sunday on suspicion of killing another teen for his iPod portable music player, police said.

The boys were facing charges of murder, robbery and weapons possession in the death of 15-year-old Christopher Rose, police said.

Rose and three friends were accosted by a group of young men Saturday evening in Brooklyn, police said.

Members of the group demanded Rose's iPod and stabbed him twice in the chest when he resisted. The group fled, taking Rose's iPod and a backpack, police said.

Rose's relatives spoke to a The New York Times at a family gathering Saturday night.

"My cousin today got murdered over some stupid iPod," Koreena Glanville, 21, told The Times.

"We sent him to school in Pennsylvania so he wouldn't get involved in this," his father, Errol Rose, told the newspaper.

Police also have reported a wave of iPod robberies on city subways, saying in April that 50 iPods had been stolen this year, compared to none over the same period last year.

Authorities believe that most robbers kept the devices, which can retail for about $100 to $500, for personal use rather than selling them.
 
only a matter of time before that happened..nothing new really just "same homicide different trendy gadget"
 
Sadly this is noting new. Kids few years ago used to get stabbed for their Triple Fat Goose Coats and Air Jordans. It's stupid, nor do I condone it. But this stuff is nothing new
 
Its true lol Years ago they would kill for sneakers.
 
I know.

It's like a line from one of Billy Joes not so great classics:

"We did not start the fire. It was always burning since the world was turning."

Kids have been doing this for years. It's sad.
 
i dont believe that WTF 🙁 over something that costs under $500! that's not worth taking someone's life for.

Amen but the criminals dont think that way. They dont think about the consequences to perhaps years later.

Its the same shit as wearing a 10K piece of crap necklace and getting mugged or killed for it...shit even a silver chain!
 
Because muthaf**kers don't want to make something of their life....get your own damn iPOD with your own goddamn paycheck...now their ass is in jail, what f**kin use will the iPOD serve them now? F**kin punk bitches.
 
That is just horrible...How sad...but it's true...these f*cking punk a$$ muthaf*ckers don't want to take responsibilty and get a job and buy their own shyt...instead they go around thinking they all cool and shyt jacking people for their stuff...well you know what they got theirs and they will probably get some more when they become some muthaf*ckers human iPod in jail...they will be singing a tune then...:angered
 
The last few months same thing has happened. People have gotten killed or beaten for their ipod. In an article I read a while back, it said people actually change the color of the earplugs, so that others won't think it's an ipod. What sick mother f**kers, killing for something you can buy. Assholes.
