Woman’s baby delivered after she’s fatally shot outside Amazon warehouse, MN cops say
A pregnant Minnesota woman is dead after being shot in the parking lot of an Amazon warehouse, but her baby survived, Minnesota police say.
Responding to a 911 call, officers with the Lakeville Police Department found the 31-year-old woman suffering from a gunshot wound inside a vehicle parked outside of an Amazon fulfillment center at 6:51 p.m. on Jan. 8, the department said in a news release.
First responders performed lifesaving measures and the woman was transported to Hennepin County Medical Center with “life-threatening injuries,” a release said.
She died at the hospital but staff were able to deliver her baby, the release said. No update on the newborn’s condition was given.
Police say 32-year-old Donte Rapheal McCray — who has “employment affiliation” at the Amazon facility — was involved in the shooting.
McClatchy News reached out to Amazon for comment on Jan. 9 and is awaiting a response.
McCray knew the victim, police said, but the nature of their relationship is unclear.
He was arrested on a charge of manslaughter and booked into the Dakota County Jail, police said.
