George Floyd's young niece is on the mend after what seems like a targeted attack on family members in his hometown of Houston.

Four-year-old Arianna was struck with a bullet in her torso Saturday while she slept in her bed at home. The bullet was fired by an unidentified suspect, or suspects, who opened fire into her family's house ... according to Houston's ABC13.

She was taken to a hospital where she underwent surgery and was stabilized. Arianna's father says she suffered a punctured lung and liver, as well as 3 broken ribs, but she's recovering.

As for who might've done this ... no arrests yet, and cops aren't saying anything about possible culprits -- however, Arianna's family tells ABC13 they know the shooter ... but, for some reason, they believe the incident was "just a coincidence."

Apparently, Arianna had attended some protests last year to honor her slain uncle. She's technically his great-niece ... being the daughter of his niece, Bianca, whose mother is George's sister, LaTonya.

Story developing ...

If they are afraid to say that means it was cops or someone with enough ties to them that they are protected from on high.

The family said they know the shooter and it was probably "just a coincidence".

Doesn't really sound like racists going out to attack George's family, and if it was idk why the family would respond that way.

Doubt it was the cops. It would be a massive media story in favor of them

Sounds like some Mafia shit. So the cops being involved would sadly not be surprising.

Glad the little girl is recovering.

yea, I didn't wanna make any claims about who the shooter is, whether it's a cop, gang member, and/or racist, but I think it's messed up to claim that anyone in the house is gang affiliated without supporting it.

getting your house targeted, shot at, knowing who did it, and refuse to say. Is like gang beef 101. Its almost like I grew up in Chicago and I literally see this every day. Youre righ tho, doesnt mean this is the case

I can tell you right now from reading the story it was a threat by some gang member they know and not political or racial at all.

It's stupid they are turning this into some anti blm/pro cop thing.

Clearly someone on her family didn't pay up for some drugs they bought.

I mean do you honestly think they would be defending the shooter of it was some random white redneck club? It's clear as day the family knows it is gang debt related.

or alternatively it was a family member fucking around with a gun? you're a cop aren't you? isn't that horribly common, or are you really just drilling down on the gang violence thing for "thin blue line" reasons?

No, its not common for multiple rounds to enter an apartment from the outside in from family on accident. Ive been to a couple ones where they let off one round on accident from cleaning it.

the only thing that could give shooting multiple rounds into your own residence on accident would be because its NYE

It's not hard to put two and two together when there's been a violent incident and people who know who the culprit is are afraid to speak up about it. That means some kind of gang is involved - maybe not the kind that first comes to mind for this situation, but "gang" covers far more than just groups of young minorities on the street. (To those of you tempted to say "what if it's the police", with how American ones work tell me what the difference between them and a gang is first.)

Read the first part. Those are the exact characteristics of a drive by shooting. We get them all the time around here. The "coincidence" part most likely means the little girl wasn't targeted specifically, but got hit accidentally while targeting someone else's room or car or something.

I'm not saying that it's not a gang shooting at the house, but just straight up assuming that anyone is also in a gang as a result is pretty sus.

we (the readers) don't know who the shooters are and we don't know their motivations.
