Anderson Davis, 17-month-old shot in Texas rampage, expected to survive
2019-09-02
[NYPOST] The family of a 17-month-old girl who was struck by a bullet fragment during the latest Texas mass shooting on Saturday says she will survive — but they’re hoping donations will help with her medical bills.

Anderson Davis was grazed by shrapnel on the right side of her chest, according to a GoFundMe page set up on behalf of her family.

More shrapnel knocked out her front teeth and tore a hole in her bottom lip and tongue, the page reveals.

“She is alive,” family friend Haylee Wilkerson wrote in setting up the fundraiser.

“When others today are not alive.

“I ask you to continue praying for our hearts as we experience this, pray for complete healing of Anderson, pray for every other family in our same situation, or worse, today and pray for the shooters,” she wrote, describing Anderson as a “sweet sweet baby girl who is so little and doesn’t realize what is happening.”

“Pray that whatever is causing them to do this will be defeated by God and they will stop shooting,” the post says.

The New York Times interviewed an eyewitness to Anderson’s shooting.

“She was conscious, but she was just covered in blood,” Junior Bejarano, 20, said of finding the tot in her car seat outside the Twin Peaks restaurant, where he is an employee.
