A 16-year-old girl is dead after being shot in her own bedroom by a stranger she had never meet before in what police believe was a tragic accident.
V’ondra Olivaria of Clayton County, Georgia, was visited at home by two boys - Brandon Williams, 17, and Justin Vitto, 20 - on Saturday evening.
Just minutes after the boys arrived, V’ondra’s mom Yolanda Rincon heard a gunshot and ran to her daughter’s room, where she saw a panicked Williams holding the weapon.

‘He shook my hand and not even five minutes later I heard a gun go off and my baby was gone,’ Rincon told WSB-TV.
Both Williams and Vitto quickly fled the scene, leaving Rincon to tend to her second oldest child as she passed away.
