It was later revealed that the victim was pregnant. Kenosha Police spent several hours searching for the offender. According to police radio traffic, the firearm was located, but KCE cannot confirm this to be the case.

Detectives, evidence technicians and other officers were on the scene. The Kenosha Fire Department requested Flight for Life, but unfortunately there was also a very bad car accident on Highway 50 in Bristol that also needed Flight for Life.

  1. Women & Chipdren Horizon is closed, so the DV victims have nowhere to turn.

    Just a reminder that Clara Tappa, who allowed this organization to be run completely into the ground, is still the head of HR for Kenosha County.

    1. very true, democrats love to slaughter fetuses, 40% of colored fetuses killed by grinding to a halt. 20% of all fetuses vacuumed up. gov cares about you. take your shots

    1. That’s exactly my thought!! I asked the Kenosha County Scanner the same question. Let’s see a picture of the suspect, so that residents and the community can help find this POS and bring him to justice for the murder of 2 innocent people!!

  2. Did the sister of the victim give police a description of the boyfriend? The community could assist in the “manhunt” if we had a little more information to go off of.

  3. Wouldn’t it be easier to find him if they release his name? They want the publics help but with no information to help kinda hard.

    1. Do you feel super special that you caught a mistake? As you should know from the details, she didn’t die until several hours after she was shot. When the story was published it said attempted homicide. Then when I found out the unfortunate news that she passed away I tried to remove all the words attempted but missed a couple. You going to go brag to all your friends now that you found something wrong on my page?; congratulations
