Liveleak Presenting "Man wanted in Sunday shooting surrenders after a confession video surfaces". <br />Added By: zombiestench 2 <br />Location: Anchorage, Alaska, United States <br />..................... More About .............................. <br />The man wanted after Sunday's East Anchorage death of a driver who was shot inside his vehicle surrendered to police Friday morning, a short time after a Facebook video was posted in which a man claiming to be the suspect gave a confession. <br /> <br />Police spokeswoman Jennifer Castro said in a Friday statement that Deandrew Lee Jennings Walker-Webster II, 18, was in custody after "turning himself in to authorities." <br /> <br />Walker-Webster has been charged with manslaughter in the death of 17-year-old Xeryus Tate, whose body was found next to his 1995 Honda Accord near Fourth Avenue and Newell Street about 2 a.m. Sunday. <br /> <br />The Facebook video, posted by user Xavier Johnigan about an hour before police announced Walker-Webster's surrender, showed a man who identified himself as Walker-Webster saying he will soon be turning himself in. The video appeared to have been taken with a handheld camera or phone in a clean, narrow residential hallway. <br /> <br />The muscular man in the video took responsibility for shooting Tate, also known as "Iggy." He said the shooting was not deliberate but added he was prepared for the consequences. <br /> <br /> <br />"The people who say I murdered Iggy on purpose, that's not what happened; it was an accident," the man said. "I shouldn't have been playing with the gun in the first place, but hey — it happened." <br /> <br />The man offered condolences to Tate's parents, adding that he remained at the scene as Tate died. <br /> <br />"When he got shot I was standing there watching him talk to me, and he stopped breathing in my hands," the man said. "So for people to say I did this just out of spite or evilness is a lie." <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />Castro said police couldn't confirm the video's authenticity Friday morning. <br /> <br />The man in the video signed off by thanking his loved ones for their support and said he appreciated his upbringing. <br /> <br />"Now I've got to go do what I've got to do — face my time — because my mom and my dad did not raise no cowards," the man said. <br /> <br />In charging documents, police said witnesses inside the Honda Accord reported that Walker-Webster was sitting in the vehicle's back seat Sunday when he pulled out a handgun. The gun discharged and fatally wounded Tate, police said. <br /> <br />Follow our channel for more updates. Thanks!
