Mia Dailey, the one-year-old who was shot by gunmen as they slaughtered a man at West Street in downtown Kingston Sunday morning, is responding after surgery, a relative told the Jamaica Observer yesterday.
“She’s responding, but there is no feeling in her legs,” the relative said.
“The X-ray suggests that there is some injury to her spine, so they are doing further tests to determine the extent of the damage, and they’ve brought in a specialist to consult on the matter.”
Mia, who had been seated on a chair outside her house awaiting her bottle, was shot in her abdomen and spine when gunmen attacked and murdered 43-year-old Andon Robinson, shortly after 7:00 am.
Angry residents who had converged on the crime scene told the Observer that warring factions from Tivoli Gardens and Pink Lane had been the cause of the brazen shooting.
According to them, two men on a bicycle had passed by mere minutes before, returning and pumping several shots into Robinson who was said to be a community handyman known for washing and parking cars.
The residents explained that Robinson had just left a communal restroom in a neighbouring yard when he was attacked.
Thank god she is still alive
Praying for a full and speedy recovery little one.
Blood and fire for the bast Ards who done this. I hope that every time you want to sleep and shut your eyes you see the vision of this child. I pray that you will never rest in peace as long as you live, because, you are wicked and heartless. Suffer bastards , until the day you die.
Piece a shit dem – no remorse & pure black soul dem hav smfh
Those careless, illegal gun packing, no aim having, life destroying criminals like the ones responsible for shooting this innocent toddler should be held caught and dealt with in the harshest way. There’s no defense for shooting a baby and an unarmed man. Nothing but cowards operating as strong men left in Jamaica. Right now I can’t see how so-called dons allows their minions to operate in such a careless manner without any accountability. Dem need to shub out the persons who are responsible for harming this little girl. The don fi get a drone strike if he’s protecting and sheltering them. It’s clear he doesn’t serve a real purpose.
I actually have become so numb. I truly detest Jamaica these days . No amount ah party or beach pics entice me anymore on IG or FB. The land is just blood-soiled. Dear Jamaica , I no longer can tolerate you…and what you’ve become . ..
Signed,
Sad Jamaican
