Police said that 7-month-old Kaori Patterson-Moore was in a stroller being pushed by her mother at an intersection, when two suspects drove up on a moped and one of them started shooting. The passenger on the moped fired two shots before they both drove off, according to police.<\/p>\n
The baby\u2019s parents ran into a nearby convenience store to take cover. That\u2019s when they discovered Kaori had been shot. Her parents rushed her to the hospital, where she was pronounced dead. The baby\u2019s 2-year-old brother was in the stroller seat next to her. He was also grazed by a bullet but is expected to be okay.<\/p>\n
