Mayor Nutter is offering a $10,000 reward for information leading to the capture of whoever wounded an 8-year-old girl, Aniyah Curry, in a weekend road-rage incident — and offered one of his memorably profane moments in the process.
“That is the most idiotic, crazy-a– behavior that people engage in, this random gunfire because you want to get around a car that happened to be double parked?” Nutter said, according to the Daily News. “I mean that’s a real a–hole.”
“Police said they believe an agitated motorist fired the shot Saturday after the girl’s father stopped his car to unload the girl and her two younger sisters,” AP reports. “The bullet pierced the back passenger-side window of the stopped car before striking the girl in the head. She is listed in stable condition at Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia.”
The $10,000 reward is split two ways — $5,000 from the city, $5,000 from the Fraternal Order of Police.
