State police say the Windber man charged with shooting his pregnant girlfriend Saturday told responders he accidentally shot her in the face after breaking his shotgun during an argument.
Denver Blough, 25, then allegedly worried “What’s going to happen to my baby?” as they took him to the state police barracks in Somerset, investigators said.
Caressa Kovalcik, 23, died the night of the shooting from a shotgun head wound, shortly after an emergency surgery was conducted at Memorial Medical Center to deliver the child she had been carrying for nine months.
The cesarean section procedure was reportedly completed without complications although the baby was flown to Children’s Hospital of Pittsburgh for care.
Blough faces a tentative preliminary hearing on June 11 before District Judge William Seger on criminal homicide, attempted criminal homicide and aggravated assault charges, among others.
