MINNEAPOLIS (FOX 9) - A fundraiser to help a family after their little girl died from being shot in Minneapolis has reached $45,000.
Nine-year-old Trinity Ottoson-Smith died Thursday following 12 days in the hospital after she was hit in the head by gunfire while playing on a trampoline on the night of May 15.
Little girl dies from injuries after being shot on trampoline in Minneapolis
Nine-year-old Trinity has died Thursday, nearly two weeks after being hit by gunfire while playing on her trampoline in north Minneapolis.
Trinity was among three children shot in Minneapolis over the course of weeks. On April 30, 10-year-old Ladavionne Garrett, Jr. was hit in the head by a stray bullet while riding in a vehicle with his parents near 35th and Morgan Avenue North. He remains in the hospital.
Two days after Trinity's shooting, six-year-old Aniya Allen was shot while sitting in the backseat of her family's car eating a McDonald's meal. Aniya died two days later from her injures.
No suspects have been arrested in any of the cases. But this past weekend, city leaders announced a $30,000 reward for information leading to arrests in the cases.
