As he lay dying, at least one of the teenagers gathered on the street apparently filmed him.
Cops then descended on the scene at around 11.30pm where they found the victim ‘laying in the roadway with multiple gunshot wounds.’

Now, eight other teens have been hit with various other charges for their role in allegedly helping to set up the homicide in the past few weeks.
Investigators allege the group of teens were aware of Wright’s location and knew Raper was armed when they alerted him to his location.
According to News 13, a 10th suspect is also expected to turn themselves in soon.
The 10th teen comes as Florence County Sheriff’s Office has confirmed the names of four others, including the victim’s 17-year-old girlfriend, Kistenmacher, who has been charged with accessory before the fact.

Florence County Sheriff’s Office Maj. Michael Nunn said the arrests have not come lightly for cops.
“The decision was made, again with investigators, in consultation with the solicitor’s office to charge each of them,” he told the outlet.
“The hand of one being the hand of all is part of South Carolina law as well, so that’s the basis of the charge for each of those individuals,” Nunn added.
He also said many of those who have been charged were ‘complicit in bringing the armed codefendant, Raper to the incident location and knowing that there would be a confrontation’.
Sheriff TJ Joyle added: “This was an altercation between two people.
“It’s not like I’m just going to go to Johnsonville and shoot somebody. They had issues with each other and it was over a female. The sad thing is, you got a 16-year-old that lost his life. You’ve got a 19-year-old who is going to be in jail the rest of his life. Over what?”
