Fatal Florida Dirt-bike Transaction
I feel so sad for 15-year-old Stuart Beck. He watched his father get shot to death on Tuesday night.

Stuart's dad, ^ 44-year-old James Beck, had placed an ad on Craigslist. He was selling a Kawasaki dirt-bike for $1,000.
A pair of teen boys responded to the ad and arranged to meet James and Stuart in East Tampa at North 18th Street and East 24th Avenue.
Police say the Becks quickly realized they were going to be robbed. As the Becks were attempting to leave, 17-year-old Dontae Johnson allegedly shot James Beck. Meanwhile, Johnson's friend, 16-year-old Ramontrae Williams is said to have stolen the bike.
Neighbors heard the gunshots and helped Beck's 15-year-old son Stuart try to save his father, but there was nothing they could do. Stuart provided police with information and they quickly tracked down the killers and recovered the bike.

^ Williams, 16, left, was arrested Wednesday evening and charged him with first-degree murder and robbery. Johnson, 17, right, faces similar charges.
RIP James Beck.
