MILWAUKEE, WI — A 3-year-old girl was shot and killed in the car she was riding in with her mother and three sisters after police say she was the victim in a road rage incident.

Milwaukee police said the shooting happened after a near-collision at about 8:30 a.m. Saturday near the intersection of North 42nd Street and West Concordia Avenue. That intersection is located in a residential neighborhood. The speed limit of the two-lane streets are 25 miles per hour in that area.

You don’t need to settle no dispute with a weapon — a gun,” area resident Randall Diggs said in a FOX 6-TV report. Diggs told the station that he heard gunshots, and became immediately worried for his mother, who was on the front lawn of a nearby house.

Police said the two vehicles suffered a near-collision at that intersection. The driver of one vehicle pulled a gun on the family and fired several shots into the rear of their vehicle. Police said they spotted a vehicle that matched the description of the shooter’s vehicle just moments later.

According to Milwaukee police, they lost sight of the fleeing vehicle, only to catch up to it after its driver crashed near 26th and Walnut Streets. Police set up a perimeter in the area and eventually arrested the man.

According to media reports, family and loved ones speaking at a Saturday night vigil said the girl, Brooklyn Harris, just turned 3years old on July 1.

The Milwaukee Police Department said it is continuing to investigate the shooting. The suspect is in custody and the Milwaukee County District Attorney’s office will review the case this week, authorities said.

Police said more information in addition to an update will be provided after the district attorney’s review and the shooting suspect is formally charged in court.

Hundreds of people came out to the intersection of 42nd Street and Townsend on Saturday night to mourn little Brooklyn’s death.

Amid cloudy skies and sweltering summer humidity, people gathered to honor her life and to share their grief with the family. A candlelight vigil was held, and numerous flowers gifts were placed at a memorial. The group launched pink, white and heart-shaped balloons into the sky to mourn her passing.

Brooklyn isn’t the first child targeted in a road rage incident in Wisconsin. In 2016, a 2-month-old baby girl was shot during a road rage incident on I-43 in Milwaukee County. The girl survived the incident.
