Parolee accused of shooting Benton Harbor girl, 4

BENTON HARBOR — A 4-year-old-girl has been critically hurt with spinal cord damage in a shooting in Benton Harbor.
Authorities say 34-year-old parolee Donnell D. Williams was seeking revenge against a man when he fired six shots Friday. A stray bullet hit Zaniyah Anderson.
The girl is being treated at Bronson Methodist Hospital in Kalamazoo. She is partially paralyzed.
Williams is being held on parole violation and attempted murder charges. He was arraigned Monday in Berrien District Court. Another hearing is set for April 22. The jail had no information Tuesday evening on whether he has a lawyer.
The Herald-Palladium of St. Joseph said Williams was paroled Jan. 7 after serving 3 1/2 years in prison on a 2006 Kent County conviction for assault. http://bit.ly/asiu5O
