A 3-year-old boy, who went for shopping with his grandmother was killed in a road rage shooting after a driver opened fire on the grandmother's car because he thought she "wasn't moving fast enough at a stop sign,'' police said.

According to the police, the boy and his grandmother were at the stop sign in southwest Little Rock when a driver apparently angry about the delay stepped out of his car and opened fire. The boy was struck by gunfire at least once, police said.

The grandmother drove away and called police from a shopping center. The police found the boy in the car outside a JCPenney department store.

Police Lt Steve McClanahan said that, the investigators believe the boy and his grandmother "were completely innocent''. The grandmother simply was "driving the car and was taking her grandson shopping when the incident occurred,'' he said.

Police Chief Kenton Buckner said the road rage killings were frustrating for the police department and the community because the young victims were “very innocent'' and “can do very little to protect themselves.” “We cannot have a community to where the least protected among us, being infants, who are dying (in) these senseless crimes in our city.'' Buckner said.
