The Latest: Family: Road rage killing should never happen

ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. (AP) — The latest on the road rage killing of a 4-year-old girl on a New Mexico freeway (all times local):

11:15 a.m.

The grandfather of a 4-year-old girl killed in a road rage shooting in New Mexico says something has to be done about gun violence.

Jose Garcia told The Associated Press outside the family’s home on Thursday that this type of tragedy should never happen. The grandfather, who spoke in Spanish, says Lilly Garcia’s death has left the family in deep mourning.

They live just south of the freeway where Tuesday’s shooting occurred. Lilly Garcia was killed after a driver opened fire on her father’s pickup truck.

Police arrested 32-year-old Tony Torrez on Wednesday and charged him with murder and other crimes.
