'Sometimes my mind is just foggy, like I can’t concentrate on the things that would be easy for me to do,' Ralph Yarl said, months after being shot in the head when he went to the wrong Kansas City address to pick up his brothers.
The Black teenager recalled that moments before he was shot in the head by a white man in Kansas City after ringing the wrong doorbell, "I'm thinking, there’s no way he’s actually going to shoot, right?"Until the moment he was shot in the head, Ralph Yarl said, he didn’t believe the armed white man in front of him would pull the trigger.
The Black teenager who was trying to pick up his brothers had gone to the wrong Kansas City address in April, when homeowner"I hear the door open. I see this old man and I’m assuming, 'Oh, this must be like their grandpa,' and then he pulls out his gun and I’m like, whoa!"in an interview that aired Tuesday, in his first public statements on the April 13 attack.
"So I back up. He points it at me. So I kind of like, brace and I turn my head. I’m thinking, there’s no way he’s actually going to shoot, right? The door even open. He’s going to shoot through his glass door and glass is going get everywhere? And then it happened."Despite being shot in the head, Yarl still had the strength to flee and call out for help.
