Rodriquez Ferguson was only 4-years-old, with a pocketful of race car toys, when he was shot to death Sunday at his grandmother's home.

The little boy was playing on the front porch of his paternal grandmother Quisha Ferguson's house in the 3100 block of Avenue Q in Ensley when a man showed up and started arguing with another man in the house.

According to Ferguson, the person who showed up to her home had a gun and "was playing with it." She begged him to put the gun down, but he started shooting.

"I begged him three times not to shoot," she said.

Birmingham police: Suspect in shooting of 4-year-old captured "Our Fugitive Team has not been off the clock and will not be until the individual responsible- plus anyone who may be assisting this person avoid capture- is apprehended," Lt. Sean Edwards said this morning.

Police said that gunfire was exchanged outside the home, and the toddler was caught in the crossfire. Sgt. Bryan Shelton with Birmingham police said the altercation stemmed from a fight over a cell phone.

"He shot my baby in the head," Ferguson said.

4-year-old boy shot, killed during Ensley crossfire when adults argue over cell phone Police said the child died at Childrens Hospital after he was struck outside of his home.

She described her grandson as a joyful, happy child. She said that he loved race cars and Ninja Turtles.

Rodriquez was "a smart little boy" and attended a daycare program where he had many friends, his great-aunt said.

She said he was an old soul.

Rodriquez's mother was going to a nearby funeral home this morning to make arrangements for her only son. Her mother, the child's maternal grandmother, was visibly distraught. She was carried to a family member's car and taken to a local hospital.

"Ain't nobody been to sleep," Ferguson said. "I just want justice."

Shelton said Sunday at the scene that the crime was "senseless" and showed a disregard for human life.

"How many life moments in this child's life were lost tonight? You can't count the number. Birthdays, graduations, first this or that, none will be seen by this mother or the family. Precious moments lost over a cellphone. You can't make sense of that," he said.

Community leaders were present with the family and echoed the grieving grandmother's plea for justice.

"It's time to say no more," Wanda Erskine, who created the Mothers Who Want the Violence to Stop program after her son was killed ten years ago, said.

"They need to get him today. Today- not tomorrow- today."

Ferguson and other family members encouraged the suspect to turn himself into police.

"You did that to him. He's just a baby."

A prayer vigil for Rodriquez will be held tonight at his grandmother's home at 7 p.m. in the 3100 block of Avenue Q in Ensley, where the shooting occurred.
