A woman named Rosa told Global News her daughter was shot in the incident. Global News has agreed not to publish her last name because she fears for her daughter’s safety.
Rosa said her two daughters were walking down 40 Avenue N.W. when an SUV pulled but beside them.
She said the people in the vehicle yelled at the girls to cross the street before firing what appeared to be a pellet gun. According to Rosa, that’s when her daughter was struck.
She said both her daughters were visibly shaken by the incident and she’s worried how it will affect her girls mentally.
Katie Maloney lives in Collingwood and said a group of kids were outside at the time.
“My daughter came running in and you can hear all the kids screaming,” Maloney said.
“She’s yelling and asking if she can use my phone. I gave her my phone and she said, ‘Someone shot my car.’ We found out it was just a BB gun, but it freaked me out and the kids were screaming in the car.”
Multiple homes and vehicles were also hit, causing extensive damage.
Police said HAWCS followed the suspects as they left the city.
Two people were eventually taken into custody near Morley, Alta., west of Calgary.
