Story highlights "African-Americans will VOTE TRUMP!," Trump tweeted

Nykea Aldridge was shot while pushing a baby in a stroller

Washington (CNN) Donald Trump tweeted Saturday that tragedies like the death of NBA star Dwyane Wade's cousin are one of the reasons African-Americans will vote for the Republican nominee, later adding that he can "fix" inner-city problems.

"Dwayne Wade's cousin was just shot and killed walking her baby in Chicago. Just what I have been saying. African-Americans will VOTE TRUMP!" he tweeted, misspelling Wade's first name.

Trump later deleted the tweet and posted an update with Wade's name spelled correctly.
