My first thought was drug deal gone wrong - what is a young woman with a 4 year old doing out a 8 in the morning. But I moved here from "the hood" where this stuff was common place so that is probably where my thinking comes from!

Could it be that she was driving her child to daycare on her way to work? Why is everybody so anxious to attack the victim?

In the article it said she was taking her daughter to day care and was stopped at a stop sign.

We live in a violent world. You just hope and pray you are not in the wrong place at the wrong time.

I would say she would be taking her to school or a babysitter , enroute to work perhaps? Schools begin earlier up here, but in some states they do start at 8 a.m. or later. I would think daycare for a 4 year old.....unless it was a pre kindergarten.

But, yes, drug deal gone wrong could also be part of the equation.
Or, perhaps, someone she knew owed someone else money for drugs.
It's not fair, but it happens.

People have lost their humanity......and have no conscience anymore.
It seems murder or attempted murder is more rampant, probably due to the drugs they are all on.

Sad story.

The article says that she was taking her child to day care.

I'm just so grateful that neither the mother or child was killed and that this jerk was a bad shot... Can't imagine how scared they were. I pass by this community all the time on my shortcut drive to Lady Lake and 441/27. Seems like a nice, quiet community.

Amazing how the first thing that people think are drugs...or why would a woman be out with her child at 8am...or that she owed drug money. Heaven forbid that a 24 year old black woman would be taking her child to daycare so that she could go to work! Perhaps she lives in the "wrong" neighborhood and the local thug decided that she shouldn't be there!

Whats wrong with being out at 8 AM? with a 4 year old? 30 years ago my then young wife would have been out every work morning with 3 kids under 4 taking them to child care, does that mean she was asking to be shot? What is the magic time that you can be out and not asking for some criminal to do you wrong?
