A woman is dead and eight other people were wounded — including three kids — after a baby gender-reveal party in Ohio erupted in gunfire Saturday night, according to reports.
Among the victims in the Colerain Township shooting was a pregnant woman who lost the baby after receiving a bullet to her leg, a family member told NBC affiliate WLWT.
Authorities were searching for the assailant or assailants, who fled after shots rang out at a home around 11:30 p.m.
Five of the revelers — one in critical condition, three in fair and one stable — were hospitalized at the University of Cincinnati Medical Center. The three children were taken to Cincinnati Children’s Hospital Medical Center.

Police identified the slain woman as 22-year-old Autumn Garrett of Huntington, Ind., WLWT reported.
A bystander phoned 911, telling the dispatcher she’d seen a pair of men enter the house while sitting outside in her vehicle.

LOL!
Oh, geez, I wouldn’t be surprised.
But none of them are nearly as good as my party. I like the shootin' in the dark the most.

In a statement released on Monday, the Colerain Township Police Department said the media and public were given information that was false, according to the Cincinnati Enquirer.
“We were led to believe an unborn child was murdered in this incident only to find out that was not the case,” police said in the statement. “From the very beginning of this investigation, we have met significant resistance that is uncommon from victims of crime wanting a resolution.”
I just thought to follow up on this story and found the same: the hostess wasn’t pregnant at all.
This raises the question of whether Ms. Willis set up the shooting in order to stage a “miscarriage” so that she could gain sympathy and perhaps donations. What a crazy world.
