A family was devastated after a baby was shot in the face while in her father’s arms and killed

There were about ten gun shots — crack, crack, crack — and then a woman’s scream.
“They shot my baby. They shot my baby.”
A man came running outside, clutching an infant in his arms. Tears slicked his cheeks, a witness told the Los Angeles Times.
The baby girl was named Autumn Johnson, according to NBC Los Angeles, and she later died at the hospital from a gunshot wound to her head. She was just a week past her first birthday.
“It looks like somebody drove up and were shooting into the house at somebody else and the baby caught a stray round,” Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department Lt. John Corina told KTLA of the Tuesday night shooting in Compton, Calif. In a press advisory published early Wednesday, the sheriff’s department said that the shooting appears to be gang related.
