LILIANA MOORE, 3, SHOT HERSELF: FATHER LEFT HER

TRAGEDY
A THREE-year-old girl died after accidentally shot herself in the head when her father left her home alone to visit his girlfriend. 
Liliana Moore found the pistol hidden under a mattress as she played in a bedroom of her St Louis, MO apartment. 
Pulling it out, she accidentally pulled the trigger, blasting herself in the head. 
Neighbors told KTVI  they saw a paramedic racing out of the building carrying Lilianna's limp body in his arms, blood pouring from her head.
Becky Lee told the station: "It's more sad than anything. Sad that you can have a three-year-old running around with a loaded gun.

"I can't imagine what their feeling right now. It's a tragedy for that to happen to such a small child." 
 Police have yet to determine whether to file charges."
It's thought the Liliana's distraught father, Ronnie, had left the child alone, to visit his girlfriend in a nearby apartment when the shooting happened. 
Police are still deciding whether to press charges against Moore or his girlfriend.

GUNSHOT VICTIM DAVION POWELL, 3, MOURNED

DESPITE his tender years three-year-old Davion Powell touched the lives of all who knew him, before he was cruelly robbed of his life when a stray bullet came through his apartment window.
As gang members apparently fought it out outside, the toddler was happily playing in his Louisville, KY when he was shot in the head, devastating his friends and family.
Gwen Jordan, Davion's daycare provider described him as a child "everybody loved" at a huge memorial service for him. She told Wave 3:  "He was a loving little boy. Very...you know just...very lovable." Jordan said. Everybody loved him at the daycare."
She added that Davion's mom had been into his daycare with postcards of her son.
"She was doing good, but I know she's very tore up. She's very hurt. Her emotions...she's so sorry that her son done this. She wanted justice. She wanted her son to turn himself in. She wanted justice.
"I don't understand how these kids are getting a hold of guns." Jordan said "We've got to stop all of this you know, killing each other."
Prime suspect Roderick Moss, 21  turned himself into police Friday evening.
He plead not guilty to a charge of murder and was held on $1 Million bond.
