As of Friday morning, the kids remain in a juvenile detention center.Under Tennessee law, detectives were allowed to publicly identify three of the five children because they have been charged with homicide and are over age 13: Roniyah McKnight, 14, Diamond Lewis, 15, and Decorrius Wright, 16. The names of the 12 and 13-year-olds have not been released.
The press release stated that the five juveniles were in a stolen Chevrolet Colorado in an alley behind Yorlets’ home when they spotted him outside.

Investigators believe that Yorlets refused to surrender his keys, which prompted the fatal shooting. It is unclear which of the five children pulled the trigger.
