Boy, 6, killed in booster seat on the way to school after his mother gave another driver the finger

A six-year-old boy who died after being shot during a suspected road rage attack while he was sitting in his car booster seat on a Southern California freeway on Friday morning has been identified.

Aiden Leos was being driven to school by his mother and was sitting in the rear of the family car when another motorist cut her up while traveling in the car pool lane of the northbound side of State Route 55, in the city of Orange, southeast of Los Angeles.

Aiden’s mother was said to have given the other driver the finger in her rear view mirror, but the gesture set off a deadly and tragic chain of events.

As she moved over towards another lane to her right, a gunman who is thought to have been sitting in the passenger seat of the suspect’s car, suddenly fired into Aiden’s vehicle, striking the boy in the back.

‘Mommy my tummy hurts!’ the youngster is said to have cried out.

After pulling over to the side of the road, Aiden’s mother picked him up and cradled him in her arms until an off-duty police office stopped to perform CPR and paramedics arrived on the scene.

‘She had blood on her clothes and he started turning blue and that’s when the ambulance took him and that was the last time my mom saw him alive,’ said Alexis Cloonan, the boy’s sister, during a tearful family press conference on Friday.
