Laura Ilg Obituary News: 31-year-old Pregnant Woman Shot Dead By 2-year- old Son in their Ohio home
A toddler discovered a pistol in their Ohio home and shot the pregnant woman, killing both the mother and the unborn infant.
According to a news release from the Norwalk Police Department, Laura Ilg, 31, called 911 and informed the dispatchers that her two-year-old son had shot her in the back.
Authorities claim that shortly after, Ilg’s husband Alek Ilg, who was at work at the time of the incident, called them.
According to the statement, after “screaming something about my son,” his wife reportedly instructed him to dial 911.
When the police arrived, they discovered Ilg, who was 33 weeks pregnant, and her son in the upstairs bedroom with a loaded semi-automatic weapon.
According to police chief David Smith, the woman was completely cognizant and able to explain what had occurred to the officers.
Ilg was transported to a hospital, where emergency C-section surgery was done by doctors.
Sadly, the unborn child passed away, and three hours later Ilg was pronounced dead.
