Pregnant 29-Year-Old Mother Killed by Stalker in Alabama Murder-Suicide

A 29-year-old pregnant mother, Shelby Amidon, was shot dead by her stalker at her home in Warrior, Alabama, in the early hours of March 19. The attacker, Ricky ONeil Beck Jr., fled the scene in a pickup truck after the shooting. Authorities say Amidon identified Beck as her stalker during a 911 call. A pursuit ensued when Beck rammed a responding deputy’s vehicle. Although the deputy opened fire, Beck escaped and was later found dead by an apparent self-inflicted gunshot wound in a nearby wooded area. Shelby, who was married and expecting her second child, leaves behind her husband and young son. The state bureau continues to investigate the tragedy.
