A three-year-old boy was killed in a suspected road rage shooting while he was on a shopping trip with his grandmother in the US.
Police said the car was shot at by a driver who thought his grandmother was not driving quickly enough in Little Rock, Arkansas, on Saturday.
She drove away from the scene and did not realise her grandson was hit until she arrived at a shopping centre where she called the police.
The boy, who police said was shot at least once, later died in hospital.
Little Rock Police said on Twitter that the boy and his grandmother “were completely innocent” and had no relationship with the gunman.
A manhunt was underway for the shooter and police were looking for a black Chevrolet Impala.
Police chief Kenton Buckner said: "This is probably one of the most frustrating things you will encounter in your career when it involves children, particularly of kids that are [at] this age very innocent, they can do very little to protect themselves."
Last month, a two-year-old girl was killed in Little Rock when a suspect drove by and fired into her vehicle. The perpetrator is yet to be found.
