A 24-year-old lady identified as Shanika Minor, who senselessly
shot dead a 9-month-old pregnant Milwaukee woman, just a week before
she was due to give birth, has been placed on FBI's Most Wanted List.
ABC11 News reported that Shanika went to visit her mum at her home
on March 5th when the mum complained about her neighbour who always
disturbed her by playing loud music constantly.
Shanika then confronted the neighbour, a lady named Tamecca Perry, a
mother of two young children, who was expecting her third, and a
shouting match ensued as Shanika brought out a gun and threatened
Tamecca with it.
When Shanika's mum rushed over to stop her daughter from harming
her neighbour and begged her to stop, Shanika has already fired a
warning shot in the air and told Tamecca to watch her back.
Just a day later, Shanika returned to her mother's house and went
straight to the back door of Tamecca's home to confront the pregnant
lady again. Another shouting match ensued and Shanika's mum ran to the
scene once more and this time positioned herself between her daughter
and Tamecca.
By this time, Shanika was holding a gun. The mum begged her to drop
the gun but instead of doing that, she reached over her mother’s
shoulder and fired a single shot from her handgun, hitting Perry in the
chest in front of her two small children. Tamecca was rushed to the
hospital where she died, just a week before she was due to give birth,
and Shanika disappeared.
According to reports, she was arrested over the weekend and now
faces charges of first-degree intentional homicide, first-degree
intentional homicide of a unborn child, and unlawful flight to avoid
prosecution.
She's being held in the Cumberland County Jail without bond until federal agents arrive to escort her back to Wisconsin.
