Pregnant Woman Set On Fire And Then Shot

WARREN (WWJ) - The ex-boyfriend of a 22-year-old pregnant woman is being called "a person of interest" by police after the woman was set on fire and then shot.

It happened early Saturday morning just after the two returned from a movie and the woman dropped the man off at the home of his new girlfriend.

That's when police say the woman was blindfolded; duct tape was placed over her mouth and around her hands and feet. The victim was driven to another location and she was set on fire and shot.

The woman remains hospitalized. Her identity has not been released. Police say her unborn baby appears healthy.
