A Minnesota man accused of shooting his girlfriend last Friday, then fleeing to Wisconsin is facing attempted second-degree murder charges.
Witnesses told investigators that Jacob McPheeters said he was angry because he would be going to prison soon on a Wisconsin drug charge and couldn’t trust his girlfriend.
McPheeters reportedly pulled a pistol on the woman in the parking lot of a Bloomington motel, and witness managed to grab the weapon, but he got another gun and shot his girlfriend point-blank in the chest.
Police tracked McPheeters through his phone and he was arrested in Wisconsin with the guns and three pipe bombs.
