Doctors in Arizona delivered a premature baby Saturday when the infant's mother was killed in an early morning shooting.

Jasmine Vega, 19, and others were asleep in their residence in Tucson when Vega began screaming, according to the Tucson Police Department.

Officers and firefighters arrived at the residence about 4:30 a.m. MT and found Vega wounded with gunshots. She was taken to a nearby hospital where she was pronounced dead shortly after arriving.

Vega was six months pregnant. Hospital staff members delivered her baby, which is being treated.

Officials did not release details on what condition the newborn was in or whether the baby had been injured in the womb.

Arriving officers found multiple projectile holes in the wall of the residence, and detectives said evidence suggests multiple bullets were shot toward the residence from outside.

Detectives are investigating whether any of the residents were targets.

No one else was injured in the shooting, and no suspects are in custody.
