16 y/o Johnny Peluyera from Gary, Indiana was shot dead in front of his FATHER while trying to sell his XBOX after arranging the sale on the app OfferUp!!

He went with his Dad to meet up with 2 men to sell his XBOX One but the transaction took a horrifying turn when he tried to run from the men with the XBOX and was SHOT in the BACK!!

The boy's father, who doesn't want to be named said he was suspicious when the men lured his son to a "secluded location" at the last minute and he spotted one of them holding a handgun!!..

He desperately tried to warn his son from inside of the car and yelled to them they were carrying a gun and that's when Johnny tried to run but the men fired 2 shots in his back as he tried to run back to his Dad's car..


Johnny died shortly after paramedics arrived as they weren't able to save him

His devastated mother, Kelly Arroyo said she can't believe her son is gone and said "I just completely don't understand. I don't understand how somebody, over an XBOX, can take somebody's life"

He was set to be a junior at Merrillville High School as police said the suspects are in the area

The 2 men are in their early teens to late 20's and are known in the area

One of them was wearing a black hoodie and the other a grey hoodie and both had basketball style shorts

The public has been warned to remember to always meet at a safe place like a police dept parking lot when dealing with online sales

A Gofundme page was set up to help raise fund for the teen's cremation with the family already to cover for medical costs related to his older sister's cancer treatment

Over 2800 has been raised so far

Do you think teenagers should be allowed to sell things over the internet and in person even with an adult nearby??
