The healthy 3-day-old infant was found around 8 p.m., about six hours after his mother was fatally shot following a verbal altercation in a parking lot, Montgomery County District Attorney Brett Ligon said. Ligon wouldn’t say where the infant was found, but he said the baby was being reunited with his father.
Kala Marie Golden Schuchardt was leaving an afternoon checkup with her son when she had a verbal altercation with a woman in a Lexus parked next to her pickup truck, Montgomery County sheriff’s Lt. Dan Norris said.
Good morning! I had a horrible night last night. Kept having nightmares due to this story since my wife and I have a 19month old, and she is 8 mos. pregnant! Just made 3rd cup of coffee!
