SEATTLE (AP) — A 1-year-old girl who was shot in the head in a drive-by shooting outside Seattle has died.
A spokeswoman for Harborview Medical Center says the girl was brain dead and care was withdrawn Saturday night.
Police say the baby was shot in the head Thursday afternoon while sitting in a car seat in the back of a silver Chevrolet Impala at an intersection in Kent, Washington. Her parents were in the front seat when police say a black car pulled alongside, and the driver and a passenger in that vehicle opened fire before driving off.
Authorities have said they don't believe the shooting was random.
