Police are searching for a gunman who killed a 15-year-old girl in a street stickup as she and two friends were headed to McDonald’s after a movie night out during spring break in Florida.

Kayla Rincon-Miller was shot on Sunday night in the 2000 block of Southeast 16th Place, Cape Coral Police Chief Anthony Sizemore said at a Monday news conference.

“It should strike a nerve that a young, vibrant 15-year-old girl was shot dead in the street,” Sizemore said.

Sizemore said Kayla was killed when a car pulled up and blinded the girls with their headlights. The assailants jumped out of the car and tried to rob them. One of them began to shoot. Kayla was struck in the chest, police said.

The vehicle the shooter was in then fled south.

Gunman fleeing crash arrested after breaking into Colorado Supreme Court building

A gunman accused of breaking into the Colorado Supreme Court building in Denver by shooting out a window early Tuesday has been arrested on charges of arson, robbery and burglary.

Police said it is unlikely that the incident was related to the Colorado Supreme Court’s decision two weeks ago that held that former President Donald Trump could not appear on the state’s ballot.

Reuters, Bloomberg Law, the Denver Post and Colorado Public Radio have coverage.

Police said 44-year-old Brandon Olsen broke into the Ralph L. Carr Colorado Judicial Center after he was involved in a nearby car crash.

After entering the building, Olsen grabbed a master key from an unarmed security guard, fired more shots on the seventh floor and started a fire there, police allege. The sprinkler system extinguished the fire.

Police arrested Olsen at about 3 a.m. after he called 911 and surrendered.

The judicial center will be closed for some time because of “significant water damage,” a spokesperson told the Denver Post.
