A 15-year-old Florida male is accused of killing a 6-year-old girl in a drive-by shooting; the victim was in her living room at the time she was shot.

Orlando police said officers responded to the 1100 block of Poppy Avenue over a report of multiple shots fired from a passing vehicle around 8:20 p.m. Aug. 29.

Police said a 6-year-old girl — Ajahliyah Hashim — was shot while inside her living room and that medical staff declared her dead. Police said the girl's mother also was shot but that her wounds were not life-threatening.

A third gunshot victim — 19-year-old Isaiyah Wright — was taken to Health Central in Ocoee where medical staff declared him dead, police said.

Police said 15-year-old Nico Brown was arrested Saturday for first-degree homicide in connection with the shooting.

Police added that their investigation is ongoing and that they are encouraging anyone who has information about the shooting to contact the Orlando Police Homicide Unit; individuals also can offer information anonymously through Crimeline at 1-800-423-TIPS.

Commenters on the Orlando Police Department's Facebook post about the arrest were heartbroken over the killings and not at all sympathetic to the suspect. The following are a few of their posts:
