The shooting started Monday, sporadic gunfire that forced residents of an Opa-locka apartment building to scramble for cover. Families avoided windows. Babies slept on the floor.

Police came out several times, but as soon as they left, the bullets were flying again. By the second night of the siege at 2070 Lincoln Ave., Nicquila Godbee decided she had to get her three children out the next time the police showed up.

A little before 1 a.m. Wednesday, her 5-year-old daughter, Melanise ''Neenee'' Malone, hugged a police officer and climbed into the family's van.

They got only a couple of blocks away before a spray of bullets ripped through the van. And Neenee was dead.

''She thought she was safe,'' Godbee sobbed later.

''They were just shooting,'' she said. ``They didn't care who they were shooting at. And they watched me put my babies in the car.''

Neenee was shot in the head. Godbee's other two daughters, 5-month-old Nicquasha and 7-year-old Demetria, escaped unharmed, as did the adults in the van: Godbee and her boyfriend, Ricky Cooks, her sister Dashonna Godbee and her cousin Tenia Waters.

Dashonna Godbee, who was driving, trembled as she recalled her terrifying drive out of a neighborhood called the Triangle, one of Miami-Dade County's urban war zones.
