Two Michigan men who were teenagers when they killed a 7-year-old girl in a drive-by shooting now face life in prison. According to reporting on the case by local NBC affiliate WDIV, Ariah's mother was waiting in her car at a bus stop in Pontiac during the late afternoon of March 18, 2022. After the bus dropped off Ariah, her sister, and her two cousins, Ariah's mother started driving them home. Behind the wheel was Rouser, who drove the SUV while McDonald opened fire on Ariah's mother and the four elementary school-age girls. McDonald fired eight times, grazing Ariah's mother and hitting Ariah in the back of the head.
