Heartless Kia Boyz killed Texas rapper and his daughter. |
It is a truly heartbreaking story.
A 5 year old girl was a victim of a shooting. Her father was also targeted. It happened on Monday in Texas.
The victim was Get$ Lil Ronnie, a Dallas area rapper was ambushed by two Black males exiting a Kia.
Gun violence is the number one threat in the United States.
The Kia Boyz, a gang of teens or young men who violently steal Kia and Hyundai vehicles. They intentionally cause criminal acts using the vehicles. Some of the acts involve injury or death to those affected.
Forest Hill police responded to Slappy's Car Wash on Forest Hill Drive just north of I-20 just before 11 a.m.
One woman at the scene named Stella Houston told reporters that the victims were her nephew and his daughter, who celebrated her 5th birthday on Sunday. Friends and family identified the man as a Fort Worth rapper known as Lil Ronnie.
One witness told a CBS News Texas photojournalist that they heard 20 to 30 gunshots.
Police said the suspects are described as two Black males wearing blue jeans and grey sweaters. Forest Hill police said the suspects exited a white, four-door Kia and approached the victim's vehicle, which was stationary in a bay at the car wash. The suspects opened fire and fled the area.
A suspect has been identified and a warrant issued for capital murder, police said; however, the department is not releasing suspect names as the investigation is ongoing.

A promising career cut short. |
Video from CBS News Texas chopper showed dozens of evidence markers on the ground and a heavy police presence around the car wash. Fort Worth, Everman and Mansfield officers were on the scene in addition to Forest Hill PD.
In a statement issued Monday afternoon, Slappy's car wash said it would be closed for at least two days to assist the investigation.
"We are shocked, appalled and deeply troubled by the senseless and violent events that occurred today," the statement said in part.
This is the fourth and fifth reported homicide in the Forest Hill this year. There were zero last year, police said.
Late last month, a former employee of an auto sales business in Forest Hill was charged with murder following a shooting at the company that resulted in two deaths and one injury.
Days later, a 36-year-old Forest Hill mother was killed by "stray bullets" in her backyard. Family members said she was by the fire pit when a stray bullet came through the fence and struck her.
The Texas Rangers are leading the investigation, Forest Hill police said, with the assistance of the Forest Hill Criminal Division, Fort Worth Police Department, Everman Police Department, Kennedale Police Department and Tarrant County Sheriff's Office.

Well loved by the community, Get $ Lil Ronnie had potential. |
These murderers don't have mental illness. They are calculated and prepared. It happened to be a moment where they have the opportunity to take out lives.

We need to stop posting money online. It gives criminals an opportunity to rob and kill. |
The website Officer Down is a memorial to those police officers who were killed in the line of duty. Those victims who don't get their names or accomplishments mentioned in the junk food media. Also the website the National Gun Violence Memorial also keeps record of the many individuals killed by gun violence. We are tracking police violence and school shootings as well.
The call number to the White House and US Capitol is now going to be used. This is the official White House numbers 202-456-1111 and 202-456-1414. This is the Congress official phone number, 202-224-3121. Please be respectful to operators, staff members and elected leaders. Your calls are monitored by the US Secret Service and US Capitol Police.
Let them know that "thoughts and prayers," "hearts going to" and "good guys with guns" are no longer acceptable and you want legislation to curb gun violence. Let them know that we are tired of police officers using immunity when committing death of suspects in custody. Let them know that you are tired of private equity firms getting away with destroying small businesses and long established companies. Let them know that you are tired of your taxpayer money going to foreign nations like Israel. You are tired of hearing about "Israel having a right to..." and the bogus claims of being anti-Semitic or in support of terrorism.
We have bigger issues at home and our tax dollars should solve the housing crisis, lowering food prices, fixing roads, bridges, helping reinvest in struggling urban and rural communities. We have hospitals closing, big box retailers leaving communities and television programs dying. There are bigger issues in the country than Israel. You want an immediate ceasefire and accountability for war crimes done by Israel. You want no more foreign influence in American elections. You also want to make sure future presidents and legislators avoid influence from lobbyists.
