Six-year-old King Carter of Miami was killed on February 20, 2016, when a stray bullet struck him in the parking lot of the Blue Lake Village apartment complex in northwest Miami-Dade. King had been walking across the lot to buy candy when gunfire erupted between rival groups; the shooting was reportedly linked to a social media dispute and the intended target was another individual known as Juju.

Miami-Dade Police arrested multiple suspects. Leonard Adams, 18, and Irwen Pressley, 17, were charged with second-degree murder and attempted first-degree murder; a 16-year-old male was also arrested and charged with second-degree murder and premeditated attempted murder after confessing he was at the scene and assisted an injured participant. Reports say one defendant later pleaded guilty to murder and another received house arrest after cooperating; a separate participant who said his gun jammed received a five-year sentence.

King’s death prompted community rallies and calls from local leaders for action to stop gun violence affecting children. Does anyone have information about that night or recall activity around Blue Lake Village on February 20, 2016?
