THIS IS HOW I KNOW: It is from a confirmed police report, she was hanging around with gang members!!!!!!

I read the article and you are wrong. She was at a park. There were gang members there. She took shelter under an awning. So did some gang members.

There is no police report that she was hanging around with gang members.

Here is a police statement to the contrary:

Police have said neither Hadiya nor the people she was with were in a gang, but it is believed the shooter mistook someone in the crowd for a rival gang member, and shot at them.

And earlier on in the reports:

Police said Hadiya had no gang affiliation and likely wasn’t the intended target. Several of the teens with her at the time, however, were believed to be gang members.

Teens with her taking shelter under the awning. That does not mean she was hanging out with them.
