What started as a short drive home ended with an Oakland family pleading for someone to help theirAt about 6:15 p.m. Monday, the family was driving through the intersection of 12th Avenue and East 15th Street in Oakland when someone opened fire, striking the baby as she sat in her car seat.
"At this point in the investigation, we have obtained video footage in the area that shows a male Black subject at the corner of 11th Avenue and East 15th Avenue firing in an eastern direction at an unknown vehicle," Oakland police Lt. Seth Neri said."We believe that the victims were not the intended target but were caught in the crossfire and a stray bullet struck the child."
Police said the baby started to cry and her father got out of the car to check on her, but he didn't immediately realize that she had been hit by a bullet.
