[THESMOKINGGUN] Federal agents last night nabbed
Please don't kill me!
a baby-faced Nebraska boy, 12, for his role in the murder of a man during an armed robbery.
Jarrell Milton was collared by U.S. Marshals Service agents in Minneapolis, nearly 400 miles from the boy's Omaha, Nebraska residence.
Investigators allege that Milton and two other boys--Shuntayvious Primes-Willis, 15, and Jamar Milton, 17--last month lured two men to an Omaha park with the ruse of conducting a marijuana sale. Jarrell and Jamar are brothers.

Instead, cops say, the trio first flashed guns during the meeting and then opened fire on the two victims, one of whom was shot to death, while the other man was maimed. According to prosecutors, the three alleged assailants all have gang affiliations.
Primes-Willis and the elder Milton have been charged as adults with first-degree murder. Police have recovered two guns used during the crime and are searching for a third weapon.
Jarrell Milton will be returned to Omaha, though it is unclear what charges will be filed against him. Investigators did not disclose how the boy got to Minnesota or who might have helped him flee Nebraska.
