SUMTER, S.C. (WOLO)– Sumter Police officers say they are investigating after a pregnant woman was found shot and killed inside her home on Monday morning.

Officers say they received a call around 7:45 a.m. after a family member found 25-year-old Keyirra Tatyana Walker unresponsive inside her Carrol Drive home.

The shooting is considered as isolated and officers believe it most likely happened during the early morning hours by someone Walker knows.

An autopsy is scheduled for later this week.

Anyone who may have seen someone or heard anything overnight in the Carrol Drive area is asked to call the Sumter Police Department at 803-436-2700.

A cash reward of up to $5,000 is available for information leading to an arrest.
