   In an impassioned press conference Sunday night, Atlanta Mayor   
   Keisha Lance Bottoms issued a full-throated call for citizens to   
   stop "shooting each other up on our streets," after an eight-   
   year-old girl was shot and killed on the Fourth of July near a   
   Wendy's that has become a flashpoint of anti-police Black Lives   
   Matter (BLM) protests in the city.   
      
   Bottoms, a Democrat who is considered a potential running mate   
   for Joe Biden, made the remarks as she fought through tears --   
   and the nation endured a new bout of urban carnage. Sixty-three   
   people were injured and 17 killed in Chicago, including two   
   children, over the weekend; and in New York City, 44 were hurt   
   and at least six killed.   
      
   “Enough is enough," Bottoms said. "Enough is enough. We have   
   talked about this movement that's happening across America and   
   this moment in time when we have the ears and the interests of   
   people across this country and across this globe who are saying   
   they want to see change. But the difference in this moment in   
   time with the civil rights movement -- the civil rights   
   movement, there was a defined, common enemy. We're fighting the   
   enemy within when we are shooting each other up on our streets."   
      
   She continued: "You shot and killed a baby. And there wasn’t   
   just one shooter; there were at least two shooters. An eight-   
   year-old baby. If you want people to take us seriously, and you   
   don't want us to lose this movement, then we can't lose each   
   other."   
      
   "It has to stop," Bottoms added, according to FOX 5 Atlanta.   
   "You can't blame this on police officers. It's about people who   
   shot a baby in a car. We're doing each other more harm than any   
   officer on this force."   
      
   Secoriya Williamson, the father of eight-year-old Secoriea   
   Turner, told reporters that his daughter had been killed after   
   at least two people in a crowd of armed people opened fire on a   
   car she was riding in with her mother. Authorities said the   
   mother had attempted to drive through illegally placed   
   barricades in the area when the vehicle came under fire Saturday   
   night.   
      
   Bottoms said there have been problems with protesters in the   
   area putting up barriers to close off the street. She said she   
   received a message that the barriers were back up less than an   
   hour before she was informed that the eight-year-old girl had   
   died.   
      
   "They say Black Lives Matter. You killed your own," Williamson   
   said. "They killed my baby because she crossed a barrier and   
   made a U-turn? You killed a child. She didn't do nothing to   
   nobody. Black Lives Matter? You killing your own. You killed an   
   eight-year-old child. She ain't did nothing to no one of y'all.   
   She just wanted to get home to see her cousin. That's all she   
   wanted to do."   
      
   The shooting happened near the Wendy’s restaurant where a black   
   man, Rayshard Brooks, was killed by an Atlanta police officer on   
   June 12. Brooks was shot only after he was caught on tape   
   beating two officers, stealing a taser from one, and then   
   turning and shooting the taser at an officer. The officer who   
   shot Brooks is now fighting charges that could bring the death   
   penalty, and the officer's stepmother was fired from her job.   
   (She told Fox News she was "stunned" by her termination and the   
   charges against her son.)   
      
   The fast-food outlet was later burned, and the area has since   
   become a site for frequent demonstrations against alleged police   
   brutality.   
      
   In a statement Sunday, police said the girl was in a car with   
   her mother and a friend of the mother when they got off   
   Interstate-75/85 onto University Avenue and were trying to enter   
   a parking lot nearby. They ran into a group of armed individuals   
   who had blocked the entrance.   
      
   “At some point, someone in that group opened fire on the   
   vehicle, striking it multiple times and striking the child who   
   was inside,” the statement read. The driver drove the girl to   
   Atlanta Medical Center but she did not survive.   
      
   Police said they are seeking help from the public to identify   
   those involved and released a wanted poster saying a person all   
   dressed in black and another in a white T-shirt were being   
   sought.   
      
   "Police shot 9 unarmed black people all of last year. 25 people   
   were shot just in Atlanta. Yesterday."   
      
   — Matt Walsh   
   “An eight-year-old girl was killed last night because her mother   
   was riding down the street,” Bottoms said. “If Secoriea was not   
   safe last night, none of us are safe.”   
      
   The mayor urged anyone with information about the shooting to   
   come forward.
