A 4-month-old baby boy was fatally wounded in a gang confrontation as he was being fed in a parked car in Los Angeles, police said. Andrew Garcia was rushed to a local hospital where he died. A pregnant family friend who was feeding Andrew was wounded. A teen with criminal connections, also shot, was standing close to the car when a gang member fired six times with a shotgun, police said. The infant was “caught in the middle,” a police spokesman told the Los Angeles Times. “It’s a disturbing crime scene.”
