  "account": "Doris Adu Gyamfi, the mother of 15-year-old Ghanaian boy Javits Frimpong, who was fatally shot in New York, has traveled to the United States to arrange her son's funeral and seek justice for his death. Frimpong, who had been in the U.S. for only a year, was chased and shot while on his way to school on Thursday morning. He was rushed to a hospital, where he was pronounced dead. The police have not made any arrests yet, and investigations are ongoing. Three teenage boys are suspected of being involved in the killing, and authorities are searching for them. Gyamfi, who received an emergency visa approved by President Donald Trump, spoke to the BBC at the airport before her departure, expressing her desire to \"make arrangements for my son’s funeral\" and \"seek justice for my son.\" She also thanked the Ghanaian government and well-wishers for their support during the tragedy.",
