This shooting occurred just before 9 00 last night. We are told that the little girl, 8 years old, was struck in the head. Neighbors say the gunfire sounded like fireworks.

It was so close by the windows, i actually saw the lights. But just to hear that, its a shame. To hear a little girl in the mix of all of this, get shot. I cant imagine what shes going through at this point in time. I assured her that were going to do everything we can to bring the cowards responsible for this, bring them to justice.
