CLEVELAND, Jan. 21 (UPI) -- A suspect has been arrested in the weekend slaying of a 5-year-old girl and the wounding of her mother, Cleveland police said Tuesday.
The name of the suspect has not yet been released, the Plain Dealer in Cleveland reported.
Noni Brooks, 33, and her daughter Jermani, 5, were sitting in a car late Sunday when a green sports utility vehicle drove up and a man got out and started shooting.
Both the mother and the daughter were shot in the head.
Jermani was taken to a hospital where she later died. Noni Brooks remains hospitalized.
The suspect fled the scene. A neighbor's home security camera captured footage that helped police identify the vehicle used in the shooting.
Police later found the green SUV. Further investigation led them to a home that SWAT members surrounded early Monday morning. The suspect was determined not to be there.
