(WXYZ) — The visitation has been scheduled for a little boy who was killed in a drive-by shooting.

Visitation for 3-year-old Christian "CJ" Miller will be Thursday at the O.H. Pye Funeral Home in Detroit.

CJ was shot on Jan. 24 on the northbound lanes of the Southfield Freeway near Joy Road on the Detroit's west side. He was in the backseat of his godmother's SUV on the way to Sesame Street Live when it happened.

The bullet struck Christian in the shoulder. He was rushed to Children's Hospital where he was pronounced dead the next morning.

Visitation will run from 4 p.m. to 8 p.m.
