DailyKenn.com — 15-year-old Gracie Rae Limas was fatally shot in Gonzales, Louisiana.

Sheriff's deputies say Jaquin Stephens, 16, shot Limasin a fit of anger and jealousy, according to theadvocate.com. He evaded authorities for days.

Two others were taken into custody as accessories; a man and juvenile, the report says.

"[Ascension Parish Sheriff Bobby] Webre said deputies have recovered text messages that appear to indicate Stephens was upset with Limas about talking to another boy" the report noted.

Limas is the same age as Emmett Till when he was murdered in Mississippi in 1955. Till is celebrated as an icon of white-on-black racism due to his tender age and the brutality of his demise.
