Woman killed in Ohio home invasion

-

CINCINNATI — A 22-year-old woman was found dead at the scene of a home invasion near Cincinnati where two gunmen opened fire, wounding eight people, including three children and a pregnant woman who had revealed the gender of her child at a party Saturday night.

Colerain Township Police Chief Mark Denney said at a news conference Sunday that none of the eight people wounded appeared to have life-threatenin­g injuries, including the children, who are ages 8, 6 and 2.

The 22-year-old was identified as Autum Garrett of Huntington, Ind.

Denney said the two gunmen who fled on foot haven’t been identified or arrested. He wouldn’t discuss details of the investigat­ion into the shootings.

The pregnant woman has told WXIX-TV that she lost her child, a boy, after being shot in the leg.

The gunmen opened fire with handguns in the living room of the house where friends and family had gathered for a gender-reveal party, Denney said.

There were no indication­s of a forced entry by the gunmen, who entered the house through the front door, Denney said. He said it was unclear why the victims were shot.
