Weiler says she can only imagine how the suspect's parents feel, knowing their children were capable of taking another life with no regard...

Weiler says she's still in shock her son is no longer here...

And she holds on to some grass and a plastic tube used by emergency personnel at the scene...

Murfreesboro Police report Love, who just turned 18, was shot in the chest and later died from his injuries after an altercation at the Lascassas Pike apartment complex. It's the second murder in Murfreesboro in recent weeks.

A GoFundMe account to help the family with funeral expenses has been set up. We have a link at WGNSRadio.com.
