12 Year Old New Jersey Girl Shot by Stray Bullet to be Taken Off Life Support

She was shot on Saturday and on Monday, the family makes the ultimate decision.

A 12-year-old girl is set to be taken off life support Monday after she was shot in the head while riding a scooter in northern New Jersey on Saturday night, police said.

Genesis Rincon was critically injured in the 8:40 p.m. shooting in Paterson and would not pull through, her family said from her bedside, where they were saying their goodbyes Sunday.

“They’re hurting, they’re in mourning, but they’re outraged,” a spokesman for the family Rev. Della Fischer, told CBS News York. “This is senseless.”

Little Genesis was walking with two other kids on Rosa Parks Boulevard when she was cut down by a stray bullet, police said.
The trio was heading back to a family party after making a run to a nearby store, which was closed.
