A 20-year-old eight-month pregnant woman named Jennifer Hernandez was shot and killed while leaving a gas station in Houston, Texas, and law enforcement officers are still trying to make sense of the reckless incident. (Read More Here).
Hernandez was in a vehicle with her boyfriend as they left Airtex Drive and Ella Boulevard on Friday evening, and within seconds, a white vehicle pulled up behind them and began firing several shots.
According to the Harris County Sheriff’s Office, the pair had just gotten to an intersection when the other car approached the couple. What’s more, the tragic shooting occurred just one day before Hernandez was expected to attend her baby shower as she was just weeks away from welcoming her bundle of joy. Both Hernandez and her unborn child were pronounced dead after being rushed to a nearby hospital, KTRK reports.
“We are absolutely devastated by Jennifer’s passing,” an official GoFundMe page for Hernandez read. “Nana was a wonderful daughter, a wonderful sister, and would have been a wonderful mother.” Her boyfriend, 17, who witnesses, per ABC13, say was pleading for someone to help his ailing girlfriend, told cops he had no idea of who the person was that targeted them. He, too, was shot twice but survived.
