"We would like to thank all the nurses and staff at Memorial Regional and Joe DiMaggio Hospital for their amazing care of Baby Amari and for all they do daily for families," the statement said. "Gun violence is a national crisis, until our government steps in and creates a solution to this problem mass shootings will continue in this country. Our hearts and prayers go out to tomorrow's victims and to the past victims of gun violence. Gun violence is becoming normalized and America should be more diligent in making a change!"
The toddler was with his parents enjoying a bike ride on Hollywood Beach on Memorial Day when he got caught in the crossfire.
Surveillance video showed the family on a four-wheel bike, trying to speed away from the chaos — but it was too late.
Amari the youngest out of nine people who were injured in the shooting. He was shot in the foot, which his father said will never be the same.
Investigators arrested two men in connection to the shooting and are still looking for three others.
