This is a horrible way to start the new year.
According to NY Daily News reports:
Nicole Grier, 19, was strapping the child into her car on Northwest 18th St. in Lauderhill about 6:30 p.m. Monday when gunmen riding in a sedan with tinted windows pulled up and opened fire, NBC Miami reported.
The babysitter, Camille Watkins, said she was in the shower when she heard five or six shots, the station reported.
She ran outside to find Grier bleeding in her driveway and her son screaming nearby.
âSomeone else called 911, and I just kept telling her to hold on, hold on,â Watkins said.
Grier was pronounced dead at a hospital.
Police donât have any suspects, but were hunting for the shooterâs car, described as a dark Infiniti or Lexus with tinted windows.
A $3,000 reward has been offered for information leading to the killers.
Meanwhile, Grierâs loved ones were struggling to pay for her funeral and held a fundraiser on Wednesday night to help offset the costs.
âIt hurts,â Grierâs father, Keith Bosket, told NBC Miami at the event, where friends and family sold food and T-shirts paying tribute to the slain mom.
âWeâre just coping with it. Thatâs all we can do.â
Grierâs mother, Tamala Watson, angrily pleaded for the shooters to turn themselves in.âYou left an 11-month-old baby without a mother,â Watson said. âSomeone took her life for nothing.â
So sad, that poor little boy will have to grow up never knowing his mom. Weâre praying they catch they catch those fuccing cowards who did this to her so justice may be served.
Our prayers are with that innocent baby and his family.
R.I.P. Nicole Grier
