According to court documents, the shooter was 19-year-old Deshawn Bolds, who allegedly sent his baby mama several texts threatening to shoot and kill her earlier that day.
Court records say he and the victim -- the mother of Bolds' child -- were arguing throughout the day over the phone. At one point, Bolds threatened to hurt the woman.
She was at a friend's house in Portland when she told police Bolds became friendlier and wanted to talk to her. That's when he showed up at the house. Police say as the victim walked outside, Bolds got out of a car with a gun and started shooting before taking off.
She was shot four times in and around her chest, but survived.
"The facts and circumstances certainly pose significant concern for the safety of this individual and for members of our community," said Assistant County Attorney Kristin Southard, during Bolds' court appearance Thursday morning. "And I think it's also significant that it looks like he's on a felony diversion."
Bolds' bond was set at $750,000. He is facing charges of attempted murder and assault, among others.
LMPD says they found 17 shell casings after the shooting. They say some bullets even went into a neighboring house, but no one else was hurt.
