Olivia’s mother, Cheryl Korbel, was hit in the wrist as she desperately tried to shut her front door, but the bullet also struck her daughter, who was standing behind her.
The youngster was rushed to hospital but could not be saved.

Pink ties, jackets, scarves, and bows were worn by those attending the service after her family asked people to wear a ‘splash of pink’.
