Prayers are needed for another Houston family as their child struggles to survive a stray bullet shooting.

Just last week I wrote about a Houston family traveling to the grocery store by car when a truck seemingly got impatient with their slow driving and began firing shots into the family vehicle striking their nine-year olf daughter in the head.

Road Rage Leads To Nine Year Old Shot in Head

This morning we learned that in Houston late last night a stray bullet from a self-defense shooting gone wrong has hit another innocent nine-year-old.

Authorities in Houston are reporting that last night a little before ten pm, a man had driven up to an ATM at Chase Bank in the 2900 block of Woodridge Drive and Village Way to withdraw money when a suspect approached him by foot and pulled a gun out to rob him.

Everyone appeared to be armed but the innocent family.

The driver at the ATM was also armed and managed to exit his vehicle firing at the suspect as he ran away. Sadly at that moment, a family of four driving on Winkler toward Woodridge as one of the bullets hit the back window of their family vehicle striking their nine-year-old daughter in the head.

The little girl was transported to Memorial Hermann Hospital and remains in critical condition.

In last week's article, we were committed to keeping you updated and have learned that Houston police are now offering a $30,000.00 reward for more information on the road rage shooting that left 9-year-old Ashanti Grant in critical condition. According to the updates, the swelling in her brain is continuing to improve but it's still unclear how the shooting will affect her long term. Again we will update you as we wait for word on how the little girl from last night's stray bullet shooting is doing.
