Haha, you can't this stuff up.

The teenagers shot in Seattle’s Capitol Hill Organized Protest area earlier this week were being chased after stealing a Jeep at knifepoint — and one sobbed, “I don’t want to die” after the bullets started flying, according to a report.

Antonio Mays Jr., 16, said that he and a 14-year-old boy were being chased and shot at early Monday after they “beat someone up and took” their vehicle at knifepoint, his so-called “street sister,” Ciara Walker, told DailyMail.com.

Walker told the pair to head to the police precinct in the CHOP zone, telling them, “You will be safe there — nothing will happen to you.”

“Next thing I heard the crashing and pop pop pop, and one of them screamed, ‘Ah s–t I’m hit, I don’t wanna die,'” Walker told the Mail. “Then the phone went dead.”

Mays was killed and his younger passenger left in critical condition.

Walker insisted the pair were “not gang members” even though they “hung out with Blood gang members.”

They told her one of the cars that chased them — allegedly firing shots — had “security” written on the side of it.

“They drove into the CHOP zone not to ambush the sleeping protesters but for their own safety,” Walker told the outlet.

“And it ended up costing at least one of them their life.”
