SAN FRANCISCO (AP) — A 3-year-old girl riding in a car with her family was killed by a stray bullet in a Northern California neighborhood where a shooting over the weekend left another person dead.
The Los Angeles Times (http://lat.ms/2d4oSDi) reports Monday that the child was struck Sunday night by the gunfire and driven immediately to a hospital where she was pronounced dead. Police say that the family was not the intended target. The case remains under investigation.
The shooting was the latest in Stockton, about an hour east of San Francisco.
A block from where the girl was shot, police say a 30-year-old man was killed and a 24-year-old man hit by gunfire at a shopping center on Saturday.
Police say the shootings did not appear to be related.
