On April 3, the Belleview Police Department (BPD) received a call for a shooting at a residence. When they arrived, they found 16-year-old Christopher Leroy Broad Jr., who had been shot. He was transported to a local hospital where he died, BPD said in a Facebook post.

The medical examiner’s office said the cause of Broad’s death was a single gunshot wound to the chest and the manner of death was listed as homicide, according to a probable cause affidavit.During the investigation into the shooting, BPD “discovered evidence to prove” that Joshua Vining, 17, had “shot and killed Broad.” Vining was arrested Thursday and charged with aggravated manslaughter of a child with a firearm, BPD said.

“Through the investigation, it was determined that Vining and Broad were taking turns shooting at each other while wearing a vest which contained a form of body armor,” BPD said in the statement. “Vining shot at Broad while he was wearing the vest and he was struck.”

Police said when they arrived, they found Vining doing CPR on Broad, according to the probable cause affidavit.

A second teenager gave police misleading information about the incident and was charged with providing false information to law enforcement, BPD said.

In the affidavit, police say a third teenager told them he “video recorded both shootings using Snapchat on his iPhone,” saving the video of Vining being shot, but deleting the video of Broad being shot. A technician was able to recover the shooting of Broad, according to the affidavit.

Both Vining and the second teen facing charges for providing false information to law enforcement are being charged as adults, police noted.CNN has not able to determine if either have legal representation at this time and could not reach them for comment.

The second teen charged was released on a $1,000 surety bond on April 8, according to the county inmate search.
According to data published by the Stockholm International Peace Research Institute (SIPRI), the worldwide military expenditure had reached $1,981 billion in 2020, a 2.6% rise in comparison to 2019 figures. Namely, the U.S., China, India, Russia, and the U.K. were the five biggest military spenders in 2020. This increase in military expenditure is primarily attributed to heavy investment in R&D and in several long-term projects like modernizing the arsenal and large-scale arms procurement.

Developing countries that are seeking to expand their arsenal could see promising demand for body armor vests in the coming years. Reports indicate that the Indian armed forces needs about a million sets of body armor, costing over $2.6 billion. The country’s defense agencies are also eyeballing ways to develop lighter body armor jackets. For instance, in 2021, India’s DRDO (Defense Research and Development Organization) developed a lightweight bulletproof jacket with the help of new technology that reduces the weight of the jacket, enhancing comfort of soldiers while ensuring improved survivability.
