Trump Grants Visa to Mother of 15-Year-Old Ghanaian Killed in Bronx

Q: Who was the mysterious figure in black chasing Javits, and what do the three fleeing teenagers know about his death?

The person in black has not been publicly identified, and police have not said whether that figure was the shooter, an accomplice, or someone else at the scene. Surveillance video cited by multiple reports shows Javits Frimpong running, with a person dressed in black trailing or chasing him shortly before he collapsed. Police descriptions have separately referred to suspects wearing black clothing, including a black hoodie, black sweatpants and a mask. The three teenagers who fled also remain unidentified. Investigators are looking for three boys believed to be about 16 to 18 years old, reportedly seen running from the area in black sweatsuits and blue surgical masks. Authorities have not disclosed what they know, whether they witnessed the shooting, participated in it, or have direct knowledge of who fired the shot. What is known is limited: Javits, 15, was shot in the abdomen while walking to school near Crotona Park in the Bronx, ran about a block, and then collapsed. No arrests have been announced, and police have not publicly confirmed a motive. His father has said he believes the killing may be linked to recent bullying at school, where he says two students had been suspended for harassing Javits. But investigators have not confirmed any connection between those allegations, the person in black, and the three fleeing teens. At this stage, those questions remain central to the active NYPD investigation.

Zohran Mamdani said Trump agreed to issue an immediate visa to Javits Frimpong’s mother so she can attend the funeral of her son, who was fatally shot last week in the Bronx.
Frimpong, 15, was shot in the abdomen shortly before 9:30 a.m. Thursday while heading to school and was pronounced dead at a hospital; police have made no arrests and the case remains under investigation.
Thomas Frimpong, the boy’s father, said he had learned days earlier that his son was being bullied at school and that two students had been suspended.
Ghana’s foreign minister welcomed the visa decision, said officials in New York are coordinating with U.S. authorities, and pledged to cover the mother’s travel costs and support funeral arrangements.
