    Since only gang bangers are dying from gun violence in this country which gang do you think this kid was in?

    3-year-old boy dies in road rage shooting during shopping trip with grandmother in Arkansas

    Published December 18, 2016 · FoxNews.com

    A 3-year-old boy being taken on a shopping trip by his grandmother was killed in a road rage shooting when a driver opened fire on their car Saturday evening because he thought she "wasn't moving fast enough at a stop sign," police said.

    The boy and his grandmother were at the stop sign in southwest Little Rock when a driver apparently angry about the delay stepped out of his car and opened fire, police said. The boy was struck by gunfire at least once, they said.

    The grandmother, who wasn't struck, drove away and called police from a shopping center. Authorities arrived at the shopping center and found the boy in the car outside a JCPenney department store. The boy was taken to a hospital, where he died shortly after.

    Police Lt. Steve McClanahan said investigators believe the boy and his grandmother "were completely innocent" and have no relationship with Saturday's shooter, who was being sought. He said the grandmother simply was "driving the car and was taking her grandson shopping when the incident occurred."

    Little Rock Police Chief Kenton Buckner told Fox 16 the shooting is a senseless act of violence.

    "I certainly have no information to say that anyone in this family has done anything to cause this young person's life but this is about as frustrating as you can be as a public safety official or just a plain citizen," he told the television station.

    Police said they were looking for an older black Chevrolet Impala that was being driven by a tall black man. They hadn't released any other description of the man and appealed to the public for help finding him.

    Last month, a 2-year-old girl was killed when a car drove by and someone fired into her vehicle; the shooter in that case hasn't been captured.

    Buckner said the road rage killings were frustrating for the police department and the community, especially because the young victims were "very innocent" and "can do very little to protect themselves."

    "We cannot have a community to where the least protected among us, being infants, who are dying these senseless crimes in our city," Buckner said.

    He said he didn't know if the children's shootings were related.

    This type of crime is why we have jails, prisons, life imprisonment and the death penalty. I hope the guy gets caught. It will be interesting to find out his criminal history and whether or not he should have been in prison or if he was out on the streets thanks to a lax justice system that failed to keep him in prison where he belonged.

    OP, are you under the dillusion that the world would be perfect without guns? Of course, there will be crimes committed with guns in a country that respects gun rights. Cherry picking an occurrence does not reflect this respect as improper or generally ill conceived.

    Clearly if he had been walking this wouldn't have happened.

    Answer: the thug could possibly be a current or former member of the Almighty Vice Lord Nation, or the Monroe Street Hustlers among many other small gangs in the area.

    I agree. We should do everything possible, and keeping Impalas off the street by strict regulation would have prevented this travesty.

    That is factually incorrect. The NRA didnt shoot anyone. But lets double check on how sure you are about your statement. If it turns out this guy is an nra member Ill resign from the forum....if he turns out to be a person with a criminal record....you resign. Agree?

    And roads. If we get rid of roads we won't have road rage.

    Common sense.

    He didn't die from road rage. He died from a bullet

    The NRA doesn't advocate shooting people. Obama has guns protecting him, is this shooting his fault too?
