The death of anyone in a situation like this is sad and horrendous, but it's especially sad and hits close to home when one of our own dies in a situation like this. 20 year old Skylar Williams died in a shootout with a Kentucky State Trooper. She was abducted by her former boyfriend and father of her child ( it appears she had an order of protection against him). She was taken at gunpoint monday morning in a parking lot at the Ohio State campus of Manfield and at 3:30 yesterday afternoon someone called 911 in Gallitan County, KY after seeing her forced into a car at gunpoint at a gas station and the KY State Troopers responded. Police say a trooper heard gun fire from the car and returned fire. Both Williams and her abductor Ty'rell Pounds were both found fatally wounded. They are unclear who's round killed her.
I posted this for everyone to pay their respects if you so choose but also a reminder that life is short so hug your loved ones.
