DEKALB COUNTY, Ga. — Authorities in DeKalb County have arrested a suspect they believe is responsible for a deadly shooting that killed a pregnant mother of two and her unborn child.

In a partnership with the U.S. Marshals Service, deputies in DeKalb County arrested 26-year-old Devin Anthony for the fatal shooting of 23-year-old Shakiya Pridgen and her unborn child.


quote:

Pridgen's family says the woman's two children, a 1-year-old boy and a 3-year-old girl, were asleep in bed with the victim when shots were fired into the bedroom window shortly before 6 a.m.


quote:

Anthony was located and apprehended at a residence in the 1200 block of Quail Hunt Drive in Riverdale.

Pridgen's family tells 11Alive that Anthony is the father of the victim's unborn son.

He is facing charges of aggravated assault with intent to murder, feticide, and murder-malice and is currently being held in the DeKalb County Jail without bond.

In fairness to the suspect, she did nudge him in her sleep so it was self-defense.

Probably.

And I think it’s a crime not to shoot in that situation.
