Indianapolis police arrested a man Sunday and charged him with attempted murder for allegedly shooting his estranged wife and killing her unborn baby — after the woman had reportedly lost several pregnancies.
The Indianapolis Metropolitan Police Department (IMPD) arrested Jeremy McBride, 36, after responding to a report of a shooting shortly after 6:00 p.m., according to an IMPD statement. They found a woman suffering from gunshot wounds at a residence, police said. Emergency personnel transported her to a local hospital, where the unborn child was declared dead. Authorities expect the woman to live.
Local ABC News affiliate WRTV identified the woman as Kayla McBride, 25, Jeremy’s estranged wife. He allegedly shot her in the back five times. The unborn baby was 20 weeks old. (RELATED: Man Shoots Mother Of His Child In The Face While She Holds Baby, Witness Alleges)
