Teen Shields Boy from Bullet

Jullaion Jones
What a week - I didn't intend to post two heroic stories in three days, but then Jullaion Jones goes and potentially saves a 6 year-old boy's life.

Here are the details that occurred during a high school basketball game in Kansas City:
...15 men stormed a gymnasium, gunfire erupted, and player Jullaion Jones quickly left the game and shielded DeSean Merritt, 6, who had lost his father Sean in the confusion.

Jullaion got hit, the bullet grazing his body, but he will survive. Jullaion Jones is a hero and this story will bring tears to your eyes about how one kid did what was right, so very right, and so very fast, to risk his life for another. (from HipHopMusic.com)
Jullian has a lot to be proud of right now and deserves every accolade. Thank you for your inspiration!

Watch the short CNN video wrap-up below. My favorite part of it is at the end, when Jullaion and DeSean are walking down the hall like brothers - so wonderful.
