LANCASTER, Calif. – The Adamyan family experienced a tragic loss just 10 days before Christmas when their 4-year-old son, Gor Adamyan, was killed in a horrific road rage incident. The family was on their way to purchase groceries when another driver cut them off and began chasing them. The driver then pulled up alongside their car and started shooting, hitting and killing the 4-year-old boy.

Mayor Rex Parris condemned the incident, calling it “domestic terrorism at its worst.” Two suspects, 29-year-old Byron Burkhurt and 27-year-old Alexandria Gentile, were arrested on suspicion of murder in connection with the deadly shooting.

Parris expressed outrage at the situation, stating, “I wish they had shot them at the apprehension. Let’s be clear about that. You cannot go into cities and shoot four-year-old children and expect anything resembling due process.” He emphasized that crimes like these will not be tolerated in the city and that the authorities are committed to using technology to catch the perpetrators.

A GoFundMe page has been set up to help the family with funeral expenses. The investigation into the deadly shooting is ongoing, and anyone with information on the suspects or the incident is encouraged to come forward.
