The victim was with a friend when he was shot multiple times.

“My son was not who they were after, but like most situations, the innocent one always catches the bullet,” his mother Maiyannie Hubbard-Armster told WSB-TV.

Street, a junior, scored 32 points in one game this season and was averaging 19 points a game through the team’s first five games. Their sixth game was Saturday.
