Around 7:50 p.m. Tuesday, police said two men got out of a car next to a Chevrolet Malibu at a red light and opened fire at the intersection of Dickerson Pike and Douglas Avenue.
Police say Taliyah Frazier, 4, was a passenger in the vehicle and was shot in the head. Police say there were 2-year-old male twins in the vehicle. One of the twins suffered a grazing wound to his head; the other was uninjured.
The driver of the Malibu, the father of the twins, left the scene as shots rang out, driving to a store three miles away where the mother of the children works.
