A family in Hempstead, Long Island is speaking out after narrowly escaping tragedy from gun violence twice in six months.
But it's not the first time she had to.
Four months ago in March, her 7-year-old daughter Iliyana, was shot in her arm while playing in their backyard. "I really don't know how to explain it and the fact that that it was on the same street, probably like five feet from where my daughter got shot," Simmons said."Iliyana starts shaking and screaming like 'oh my god they trying to kill us. Why are they trying to kill me and my mommy. what's gonna happen?'" Murphy said."I'm disgusted. I'm disappointed. I'm outraged. I'm tired," Murphy said.
