Yarl, aged 16, was𒅌 shot when he mistakenly rang the wrong doorbell when collecting his ♔younger siblings.

Andrew Lester, 84, hওas been charged with fi🍰rst-degree assault and armed criminal action, prosecutors said.

Yarl survi꧋ved the shooting. Prosecutors said there was a "racial component" to it.

President Joe Biden⛦ phoned his family to speak with them after the shooting, his family say.

Mercedes F1 driver Hamilton has now added h꧙is voice to the growing protests after the teenager was shot.

"Ralph Yarl is just a kid and was shot for making💛 a simple mistake," Hamilton wrote. "Thank God he's alive, there needs to🤡 be justice!"

Hamilton’s social activism is a key part of his character and he has regularly supported causes close t✨o his heart.

He famously 𒈔took a knee on the F1 grid 🃏wearing a t-shirt which read: “Arrest the cops who killed Breonna Taylor.”

This season a new FIA rule was introduced which stated that drivers cannot makꦯe “personal, religious and political statements” without written permission.

Hamilton was among the driver♓s who criticised the new rulꦓe.

It was later clarified by the FIA that drivers could use their own social media platforms however they wish - meaning Hamilton’s ꦫsupport of Yarl is not breaking any rule.
