Pregnant Woman Killed By Teens Who Opened Fire On Car In Case Of Mistaken Identity

A Louisiana woman who was nine months pregnant was killed along with her unborn child when three teenagers opened fire on her car in an apparent case of mistaken identity.

Kerisha Johnson, 36, was found dead in her car after she was shot early Sunday morning.

She was shot while trying to pick up partygoers at a “teen party” in Baton Rouge, according to an arrest warrant obtained by ABC News.

“It was just senseless,” Deanna Williams, a childhood friend of Johnson, told WBRZ. “She was an innocent person.”

Johnson was “due to give birth within several days.”

Police arrested three 19-year-olds in connection to the shooting: Marques Porch, Gregory Parker, and Derrick Curry.

Police said that Johnson was driving to the party when “several individuals” shot at her white sedan. The shooters apparently believed the car belonged to someone else.
