Pregnant Woman Shot In The Stomach By A Facebook Rival

Is the social media a curse or a blessing?

An unidentified pregnant woman was shot last Wednesday in Jacksonville, Flo[April 23] after she confronted another woman, identified as Virginia Wyche, about a fight they had on Facebook. Reports say the fight turned physical and the pregnant lady was shot in the stomach and she lost her unborn child.

According to Radar Online, it was the pregnant woman who showed up at Virginia's door after both women had an argument in the comment section of a post on Facebook on Tuesday. When the fight heated up, Virginia allegedly grabbed her gun and shot the woman in the stomach.

Reports claim neighbours tried to help the woman by putting her on a patio chair to sit in while waiting for an ambulance. By the time medical help arrived, the woman was slumped over in the chair. Sadly, the pregnant woman's baby died at a nearby hospital later that same day.

Virginia has since been taken into custody and charged with murder. Meanwhile her own mother is reportedly in shock over the horrific event, and spoke to press about her confusion.

"My son called me and I was very disturbed about this because this is not the way I was raised, and they [were] not raised like this," Lillian Jordan told News4Jax.com.

"Somebody had to provoke my child to anger," the mother explained. "to do what she [did]. I don’t know if she was trying to defend herself, or if they [were] trying to jump on my child, I can't say."

Well Mama, provoked or not, Virginia could be heading to jail for a long time for murder and attempted murder charges.
