Three senior law enforcement officials said Teague is the son of Andrew Teague, who was killed in a wild police chase and shootout on an Ohio highway in March. His father had been wanted for an alleged assault in February.
Videos posted on Teague's Instagram showed the teen walking around the city, with the gun sticking out the top of his backpack. He also filmed himself walking on the street shouting "I wanna go back to Columbus," and what appeared to be him and someone else bothering people asleep on the subway. The pair threw water on one man laying down sleeping, and slapping another snoozing straphanger.

Until theyre old enough to realize that they own their problems, and like everyone else, you need to stop blaming your parents and fix yourself.
And since this problem is universal and no one knows who will snap, why should anyone have access to a deadly weapon that has no use other than to shoot other people in battle.
Insane.
