[h1]Nike, LeBron X and sneakerheads: Dying to be fresh[/h1]
By Stephen A. Crockett Jr.
Last week, 19-year-old Montre T. Bradley, was killed after stick-up kids robbed him while he stood in line to get a pair of Nike Foamposites. Relatives told a local newspaper that he worked as a kitchen porter in an upstate New York hospital and saved the $220 for the sneakers. The paper also reported that Bradley was in line the night before the 9:30 a.m. release so that he would be the first to get the new metallic silver and crimson colorway.
He would die hours later in same hospital where he worked.
