Kesean Williams was watching television with his 15-year-old brother Jan. 23 when he was shot in the head by a bullet that came through a window in his home around 10:30 p.m.
He died in hospital the next day.
Hundreds of mourners attended the funeral.
“It is heartbreaking,” family friend Sheila Anglin said outside Peoples Church in Hamilton. “It is very sad inside the church, it is very emotional. Kesean was always smiling and he was a nice kid who liked people and he was an energetic boy.”
Kesean and his family had recently moved from Hamilton to a house on Ardglen Dr. in Brampton’s Kennedy Rd. and Queen St. area.
He was a Grade 4 student at Sir Winston Churchill Public School where classmates described him as a good friend who loved sports
Peel Regional Police continue to look for the shooter.
Investigators said they believe the Williams’ house was targeted but not Kesean.
The family moved to the Brampton neighbourhood from Hamilton five months ago and into the townhouse just days before the nine year old was fatally shot.
Kesean’s parents have not talked to the media, who were not allowed to attend funeral services
