NEW YORK — Ralph Yarl, the teenager who was shot after mistakenly going to the wrong house to pick up his siblings, opened up about the harrowing experience for the first time in an exclusive interview with ABC News'Yarl told Roberts that his mother asked him to pick up his twin brothers from a friend's house, but he had never been there before and accidentally arrived at the wrong address.
Lester, 84, was charged with one count of felony assault in the first degree and one count of armed criminal action, also a felony, Clay County prosecuting attorney Zachary Thompson said during a press conference on April 17. Yarl told Roberts that after he was shot, he was bleeding from his head and was surprised that he was as"alert" as he was. He said that his"instincts took over" and he went looking for help, but according to Yarl, he had to approach multiple homes after the first house he approached declined to help him and locked the door.
Shortly after, she said she received a phone call from police, telling her that Ralph was shot so she headed straight to the hospital.According to a probable cause statement obtained by ABC News, Lester told police that he"believed someone was attempting to break into the house" and grabbed a gun before going to the door because he was scared.
Yarl's aunt, Faith Spoonmore, told ABC News last month that after the shooting her nephew didn't want to go back home because he was shot in the neighborhood where he also lived. "Classical music kinda resonates with me," he said."Just the feeling that it creates and the fact that you can make it yourself … it kinda invigorates me."
