A 1-year-old boy was fatally shot and killed while sitting inside a car in Washington, D.C., on Wednesday night, police said.
The baby was inside a vehicle that was traveling in the 5700 block of Southern Avenue Southeast at approximately 9:35 p.m. Wednesday night when police believe multiple shots were fired from another car, officials said.
Metropolitan Police Chief Peter Newsham told reporters late Wednesday it was “probably the most tragic news to announce this evening.” First responders at the scene rushed the toddler to a local hospital, but he could not be saved.
Police believe the baby was in a car with an adult man, who was driving, and another child. No other people were believed to have been injured.
