Last night we told you that on Friday evening an armed assailant opened
fire on 23-year-old Raymond Myers (Meyers) as he sat in his yard with family
and friends. The story is incredible because Myers survived the attack because
he was wearing a bulletproof vest. He lived to tell the tale and today he told
us that he knows someone wants him dead and because he knows he was wearing
the bulletproof vest.
Raymond Myers, Survivor
"The understanding I have gotten about how the street run is that the
young bwoy father said he would pay for them to kill us. He said he would pay
for them to kill us out, he will spend his last dollar he will spend to kill
us out and we don't have anything to do with that."
Keith Swift,
How long will this bulletproof vest be able to protect you?
Raymond Myers,
"Well I will stay with it until the Babylon come and ketch me with it
or something. I know who wants me dead. I know good who wants me dead and they
better send more man and come harder because I am not playing with them."
Alfonso Noble,
Will you retaliate?
Raymond Myers,
"I will be right here. I won't retaliate. I will be right around so
let them send more people. I will be right here at my yard and I won't retaliate
to say go and shoot up on them. Let them come and I will show them what I will
do to them."
Police say they are investigating and have made no arrests. They have however
made arrests for the murder of his Myers' older brother Cassius Meyers (Myers).
Alburn Plunkett has been charged with that murder.
