A young woman and her pet dog were fatally shot in Texas over the weekend while trying to help a friend leave an allegedly abusive relationship, authorities said.
Police were called to an apartment on the outskirts of Houston Spring around 5:30 a.m. Saturday and found a woman, later identified as 28-year-old Shantavia Reddick, with multiple gunshot wounds in the elevator lobby of the complex’s parking garage, KHOU 11 reported.
Harris County Sheriff Ed Gonzalez called the incident a “tragic situation stemming from domestic violence.”
Reddick had arrived at the apartment to try to help her friend leave an “ongoing domestic disturbance,” before her friend’s boyfriend, Dimitri Humphrey, allegedly opened fire on her and her pet dog, killing them both, Gonzalez said.
Reddick was pronounced dead at the scene.
Meanwhile, Humphrey allegedly fled in a white Jeep Wrangler from the apartment complex at 2323 E. Mossy Oaks Road near the Grand Parkway and North Freeway.
