“This little girl refused to give up”

-What happened on February 20th, 2016 would haunt the citizens of Kalamazoo, Michigan forever. It’s after 10 pm, outside a Cracker Barrel, when 14 year old Abigail Kopf & her friends are getting ready to head home, until an unknown man approaches them with a gun. Earlier in the day, 911 received a call about someone driving a silver Uber, who had attacked 25-year-old mother Tiana Carruthers as she shielded a group of neighbourhood children — now, he's chosen Abbie as his next target. The only hope for justice for the citizens of Kalamazoo, rests on the shoulders of whoever can survive him – and take him down before he hurts anyone else.
