On the evening of October 9, 2018, 7-year-old Zaniyah Burns was killed after a bullet struck her in the head during a spray of gunfire at her family’s home on West Austin Avenue in Flint, Michigan. Zaniyah, a second-grader at New Standard Academy who made the honor roll and was known to family as Toot Toot, died that night; investigators said she was not the intended target and that the shots were reportedly aimed at her 16-year-old uncle.

The community responded with a candlelight vigil and public mourning for a child remembered for reading, singing, dancing, and word-search puzzles. Police arrested 17-year-old Jamil Griggs and he was arraigned in 67th District Court on 18 felony counts, including first-degree premeditated murder, discharging a firearm at a building causing death, assault with intent to murder, and using a firearm in the commission of a felony. If convicted of first-degree murder, he faced the possibility of life in prison without parole.

Does anyone have information about that night or Zaniyah’s family that could help fill gaps in the timeline?
