Police publish a terrifying video of gun attack that killed a 10-year-old girl

A 10-year-old girl was shot dead when four masked gunmen opened fire on Monday night in Washington. "Outraged" policemen urge the public to help bring the strangers to justice.

The four masked gunmen fired their black SUVs in a yard around 8 pm and opened fire on 15 to 20 people who were enjoying the good weather in a nearby playground, said Deputy Chief of the Metropolitan Police, Chanel Dickerson, at a press conference Monday evening.

10-year-old Makiyah Wilson was killed and four adults were injured, police said.

"I miss my daughter," Makiyah's mother, Donnetta Wilson, told the Washington Post on Tuesday.

"She was an incredible little girl," Wilson told the newspaper "She wanted to conquer the world".

It is not clear if any of the victims were targeted, said Dickerson.

"All the hopes and dreams that his family had for her [are] have disappeared," Dickerson said of the 10-year-old assassination. "We must be indignant, we must work with the police, we must work with us to remove the illegal guns from our city."

"They went out into this community without regard to human life and opened fire," Dickerson said. "And we have to stand up as a community to say" no more "."

Wilson called the gunmen "cowards," the Washington Post reported.

"I just want justice to be done to my daughter," she said.

The police department stated that he was "determined to do justice to his family, and needed your help to identify those responsible."

The ministry urges the public to watch the video and photos of the suspect's car, described by the police as an Infiniti black four-door sedan, which lacks the rear bumper, along with paper tags .

"Enough, that's enough," tweeted on Monday Mayor Muriel Bowser. "We need all members of the community to help us get the illegal guns out of our streets. If you have any information about tonight's shoot, call (202) 727-9099 or text 50411."
