Valentina Orellana-Peraltas (14) was a random victim of police bullets. Now the father wants to put the Christmas presents he had bought for her on the grave.
Four days after a bullet from the police killed the teenage girl Valentina Orellana-Peraltas (14) at a shopping center in California, the girl’s father talks about the tragedy.
– The only thing she wanted was to become a US citizen. I said, “Let’s leave this country.” She said “No, Dad, this is the safest country in the world, the land of opportunity”, says Valentina Orellana-Peralta’s father, Chilean Juan Pablo, in an interview with the American press shown on CBS.
The tragic event happened on little christmas eve.
Police were on the scene to incapacitate a man who attacked customers in the store.
The 14-year-old girl became a random victim of one of the police bullets as it went straight through the wall to the rehearsal room where she was staying with her mother.
