CLAYTON COUNTY, Ga. (CBS46) – A supply driver is crediting God for preserving her and her household alive after they barely escaped a twig of bullets.

Kristy, who requested CBS46 to not share her full title, remains to be processing simply how shut her 2-month-old little one got here to demise whereas she was making a supply run over the weekend.

“I’m just talking to her like, ‘I’m just so glad you’re with me, that you’re here with me,’ she said holding her baby with tears in her eyes. “That it didn’t hurt her. I’m just so glad.”

Early Saturday morning, round 1 a.m., Kristy, her disabled husband and their child pulled as much as the Ice Bar Lounge & Restaurant on Fayetteville Road to choose up an order. Kristy mentioned her daughter refuses to take a bottle, so she takes her along with her when she drives in case she wants nursing.

“I had just got handed the food,” Kristy recalled. “I’m walking out, towards the exit, and that’s when shots fired and everybody’s running to the back.

Kristy said she heard a barrage of shots twice. When the chaos cleared, and she made it outside, Kristy found three bullet holes in her SUV. One of the bullets pierced the side of the vehicle where baby Abigail was sleeping, exiting through the driver’s seat where Kristy would have been sitting.

“I picked her up and was holding her up, like is she OK, is she OK,” mentioned Kristy. “And I’m checking her out and I just couldn’t believe it because the shot, if it had gone straight in, it would have killed her.”

Kristy’s child and husband weren’t damage. A spokesperson with the Clayton County Police Department advised CBS46 nobody was injured in what investigators decided was a drive-by taking pictures. However, a number of automobiles had been broken.

“It’s replaying in my mind over and over,” mentioned Kristy. “I can hear it. I can see it. I can feel it. I still feel all those things.”

While Kristy believes a better energy intervened, she mentioned she’ll be extra selective about the place she picks up and delivers when her daughter is along with her.

“I know that Yahweh, Jesus saved us, that he protected us [but], I’m not delivering to that place or over in that area anymore,” she added.

Investigators are working to determine the shooters. The incident occurred in the identical strip mall the place Anthony McClain, 17, was struck by a stray bullet, outside his barbershop, on April 2. Police haven’t named a suspect in that taking pictures.
