Two teenage brothers have been arrested after their sister was shot and died after what is said to have been an argument over Christmas presents, writes BBC.
According to the Pinellas County Sheriff’s Office, 23-year-old Abrielle Baldwin was shot in the chest by a younger brother while she was carrying her 10-month-old son in a baby carrier.
The brother was then shot by their other brother, who had his own gun, police said.
The local police confirm that the reason for the shooting is an argument over who got the most Christmas presents.
