A teen has been arrested in the carjacking shooting death of a Missouri mom who died in front of her three children while taking them to a summer day care program, reports say.

Porsha Owens, 28, was preparing to take her children, ages 3 to 8, to the program at 7:15 Monday when an 18-year-old suspect allegedly approached her, St. Louis County police told the St. Louis Post-Dispatch.

The suspect whose name has not been released allegedly pulled up his shirt to cover his face and demanded Owens keys, money and purse. Police say that after fatally shooting Owens, he allegedly fled the scene after her car failed to start, according to the newspaper.

Officials from the St. Louis County Police Department were expected to issue warrants today against the 18-year-old currently in custody, Sgt. Shawn McGuire told the newspaper. He said more details would be released when the prosecutor files charges.

Owens cousin Keon King told local TV station WFMY that her oldest son stayed with his dying mother until an ambulance arrived.

According to King, the oldest son relayed to him that after she was shot, Owens looked up and said, Im sorry. I think Im about to die.

King added, She didnt have any chance. It apparently happened so quickly.

Owens was a safety officer at the Riverview Gardens School District, which released a statement.

Officer Owens was a treasured member of the RGSD family, who worked diligently to build positive relationships with scholars and staff, reads the statement, which was posted to Facebook.

Owens family has created a GoFundMe page to help her three children.


This is fucked up.

This is tragic. The assailant definitely should get a few years behind bars to think about his actions and go through rehabilitation efforts.

I'm wondering if she put up a fight. They mention that he demands her possessions and then shoot her.

How would that help matters? It doesn't bring back the victim.

Death penalty is more expensive than life imprisonment. The procedure alone is almost a million dollars.

Not if you take them out back and shoot them. Obviously only in cases where guilt is proven as a matter of certainty.

I'm not trolling. I simply do not agree with our system's manner of handling criminals. As far as I'm concerned, excessive punishment doesn't help anyone. If a person is not a repeat offender, they should have a 2nd chance after a successful rehabilitation period. It's better than locking someone away indefinitely.

The man slaughtered a mother in front of her own children in an attempt to steal her car. This dude can rot in hell for all I care.

So just plain fail then.

He's not going to change. He likely doesn't even care about who he hurt. I'll bet my life on it.
