2-year-old girl watching cartoons is hit by stray bullet in Tennessee shootout

A 2-year-old girl was recovering in a Memphis, Tenn., hospital Thursday, a day after she was hit by a stray bullet that flew through the window of her home while she was watching cartoons.

The girl, Chrissiya Berry, was listed as stable at Le Bonheur Children's Hospital with a gunshot wound in her arm. She was initially listed in critical condition Wednesday.

"We was watching TV, and then I heard gunshots and one had come through the window and shot C.C.," Chrissiya's 6-year-old sister, Chrissy, told NBC station WMC of Memphis, using her little sister's nickname.

The bullet was one of several that flew as a fight broke out among several people Wednesday morning outside the Warren apartment complex on Clementine Road near Elvis Presley Boulevard in South Memphis, police said. At least one man was taken to Methodist North Hospital with a gunshot wound.
