A tragic incident unfolded in Ohio, resulting in the death of a 7-month-old girl and the critical injury of a 23-year-old man. Jonathan Baker allegedly kidnapped his girlfriend's daughter after expressing homicidal and suicidal thoughts. He then led authorities on a high-speed chase in his yellow Camaro, culminating in a crash that knocked a house off its foundation.
Following the crash, officers extracted both Baker and the infant from the vehicle. Despite administering CPR and transporting them to a hospital, the young girl succumbed to her injuries. An autopsy later revealed she had been shot twice. Baker remains in critical condition.
The incident began when Baker allegedly confessed his disturbing thoughts to the child's mother. An off-duty officer spotted Baker's vehicle and alerted authorities, leading to the attempted traffic stop and subsequent chase. Baker drove erratically at high speeds before crashing into the residence.
Tiffin Police Chief David W. Pauly expressed his condolences to the family and acknowledged the emotional toll the event took on first responders. Baker now faces charges of kidnapping and aggravated murder.
