ORLANDO, Fla. (AP) — A 10-year-old Florida girl has been arrested more than a week after authorities say she shot and killed a woman who had gotten into a fight with her mother.
The Orlando Police Department said the girl is facing a charge of second-degree murder.

She was taken into custody Tuesday and placed with a Juvenile Justice Center. Authorities say the girl's mother was arrested last week on charges including manslaughter by culpable negligence.
Officers say the mother got into a fight with Lashun Rodgers on Memorial Day, gave her daughter a bag with the gun and that the girl fired two rounds. Rodgers died at a hospital.
