A Mississippi family is demanding answers after a 1-year-old was killed when police responding to a shoplifting call at a Walmart fired at their vehicle. The shooting occurred Sunday afternoon in the store's parking lot in Senatobia, about 40 miles south of Memphis, Tennessee. Watch NBC 5 free wherever you are WATCH HERE WATCH HERE Kohen Wiley, 1, was in a vehicle with his mother and a family friend when he was fatally shot, said civil rights attorney Ben Crump. The friend was critically injured, he said. Kohen Wiley was a baby. His mother, who has not been charged with any crime, says she was trying to communicate to officers that there was a baby in the car, Crump said in a statement Tuesday. They fired anyway, leading to the death of an innocent 1-year-old. We intend to seek justice for baby Kohen and the life that was stolen from him. The Mississippi Bureau of Investigation, which is investigating the shooting, said in a statement that when Senatobia police officers arrived, they encountered two subjects and a juvenile child fleeing from the store into a vehicle. The state agency said police tried to stop the vehicle, but the driver drove in the direction of the officers, almost striking one. An officer then discharged their weapon, firing at the vehicle, according to the MBI. The driver then drove to a nearby hospital, where the child was pronounced dead, the bureau said. No law enforcement officers were seriously injured, the state agency said in its statement. The Senatobia Police Department did not immediately respond to a request for comment Tuesday. In a Facebook post on Sunday, the department said it was committed to full transparency. As the investigation progresses and facts are verified, we will share as much information as possible, the department said. The Tate County Sheriff's Office was also on scene for the shooting. The office said in a news release that deputies had been responding to an unrelated incident when their assistance was requested. Please keep the family #nbcdfw #crimewatchdallas
