A one-and-a-half-year-old baby was shot during a neighborhood conflict in San Fernando, and a woman was arrested, accused of being responsible for the aggression. The child's father was also injured in the incident but is in stable condition and out of danger.
Doctors reported that the father was shot in the arm and is recovering favorably. In contrast, the baby had to undergo emergency surgery after being hit by a bullet in the abdomen, and his health status is serious.
According to testimonies from neighbors, the arrested woman began shooting along with her brother, who is currently at large. The community was shocked by the sudden violence in an area that used to be peaceful, as expressed by a distressed neighbor. More than 10 shots were heard during the altercation.
Several residents managed to capture the moment of the shooting involving the brothers with their cell phones. The aunt of the injured baby stated her frustration over the situation, emphasizing that they are tired of such violent acts in the neighborhood.
The accused, identified as Celina García, was arrested following a police operation that was deployed after receiving a call to 911. It was reported that the woman has a criminal record. According to some statements, the week prior, García's home had been attacked, which motivated her violent reaction.
