A 7 years old girl was killed in a shooting outside of McDonalds in Chicago

A 7-year-old girl was killed and her father seriously injured in a shooting outside a McDonalds outlet in Chicago on Sunday.

Jontae Adams and his daughter, Jaslyn, were in a car in a McDonalds parking lot in the Homan Square neighbourhood on Sunday afternoon when they were shot, Chicago police said.

A McDonalds employee who asked not to be named told the Chicago Sun-Times that two people got out of a grey car in the drive-thru and started shooting at Adams car.

The girl, who has three siblings, was shot repeatedly and was taken to a hospital where she was pronounced dead. Her father was shot in the torso and taken to the same hospital, where his condition was listed as serious, police said.

No arrests have been made and police have not offered a possible motive.

Jaslyns aunt, Tawny McMullen, said her niece was beautiful and a really sweet child. She added that her daughter and Jaslyn were best friends.

Jaslyns grandmother, Lawanda McMullen, told the Sun Times that Jaslyn loved to dance and make TikTok videos.
