A teenage girl who was shot in the head late last week remained in the hospital Sunday in a medically induced coma.

Police said the girl was not the intended target. CBS2’s Kiran Dhillon spoke with her mother about the horrific ordeal that has left the girl in critical condition.

Just moments before she was shot, 16-year-old Kyla-Simone Sobers-Batties was doing what she loves to do, dancing and making TikTok videos. That’s according to her mother, Nadine Sobers, who got the call that she had been shot.
