Prosecutors charge 4 friends of teen killed in St. Paul robbery attempt
Before dawn Friday, Lavauntai Broadbent, 16, robbed a man at gunpoint in St. Paul and got away in a stolen car. After nightfall, he was at it again. This time, his target pointed a gun right back.
The man fatally shot Broadbent, of West St. Paul. He told police he feared Broadbent would kill him and the woman he was with, and said he had obtained his permit to carry a gun for his protection after he had recently been assaulted while walking home from a grocery store.
On Wednesday, the Ramsey County attorney's office charged four teens who had been with Broadbent on Friday, and spelled out more details about what they say happened that day.
The Ramsey County attorney's office charged Donte Edward Foster, 16, of Woodbury; Kendell Anthony Lewis, 16, of St. Paul; Malcolm James Devion Golden, 17, of St. Paul; and Nautica Delshaun Cox, 16, of St. Paul.
