A 15-year-old girl was shot and killed while walking with two friends in Cape Coral Sunday night, Cape Coral Police Chief Anthony Sizemore said during a news conference Monday.
According to Sizemore, one of the teens told police they were walking to McDonald’s on Del Prado Boulevard South after leaving the Coralwood 10 movie theater when a car pulled up and blinded them with the vehicle’s lights.
Several unknown suspects reportedly exited the vehicle and attempted to rob the three girls when one of the suspects fired a gun, shooting the victim, later identified as Kayla Rincon-Miller, in the chest.
The suspects reportedly got back in the car and fled south on Southeast 16th Place.
Police responded about 9:30 p.m. to the 2000 block of Southeast 16th Street and rendered aid to Rincon-Miller, who later died at a hospital.
