9-Year Old Shot in the Foot, but Didn’t Shed a Tear

They say that little girls in New York are tough, but this story takes the cake.  A 9-year old girl in Brooklyn was shot during crossfire this week and found a bullet that went through her foot.  The little girl didn’t panic, and just dealt with the incident without shedding a tear.

“I didn’t cry for nothing,” Dulce Cabrera said to the Daily News. “The ambulance driver man said if that was him, he would be crying.

“He said I was strong.”

The little girl, who is in the second grade, was on her way home from church about 10 pm on Thursday night.  That’s when the gunfire erupted.

“People were shooting. I saw them with guns,” she said. “They shot me in the foot. I didn’t feel anything at first, but then my sock was wet.”

Dulce’s father Jose is thankful that the situation wasn’t any worse than it was.
