Police are searching for someone who shot and killed a Milwaukee mother of five outside a gas station Sunday morning.
The fatal shooting happened just after 10:30 a.m. Sunday at the Citgo gas station on 107th Street and Heather Avenue.
Surveillance footage shows 36-year-old Nyeshia Liggins and a man, who family identifies as her boyfriend, shopping around inside the gas station.
The video shows the Liggins pay at the register and leave with the man, getting into the vehicle.
Moments later, it shows her rush out of the van, clutching her waist with a gunshot wound.
The video shows someone inside the van shut the door after Liggins jumps out and drive off. It does not show who shot Liggins inside the van.
WISN 12 News paused the video, which goes on to show Liggins bleeding out on the floor of the gas station.
Liggins had five children. The father of three of her children spoke to WISN 12 News on Monday. He said Liggins was about to become a grandmother and was fiercely loved by her family.
"All I remember is my 9-year-old calling me, screaming and telling me her mom's been gone too long and ain't answering the phone," the father said, who asked to keep his face and name anonymous. "I'm just still hoping it's a joke or a prank. Nyeshia had a big heart, big heart. Nyeshia always put those around her first."
Milwaukee police said they have not made any arrests.
