Dacoldest Wilson, 20, suffered multiple gunshot wounds in an incident Aug. 7, 2019, and died Tuesday as a result of those injuries, Dr. Kent Harshbarger, Montgomery County coroner, said in a news release.

Police have not made any arrests in Wilson’s shooting, investigators told News Center 7′s Mike Campbell.

The vigil was being held for Wilson on Willowwood Drive. That’s where the pregnant woman was hit by a vehicle. Police said the 20-year-old expectant mother and child were in stable condition Wednesday at Miami Valley Hospital.

A confrontation at the vigil about 6 p.m. prompted a woman to get into a car and quickly drive away, striking the pregnant woman and other vehicles, police said.

Investigators said they have identified the suspected driver and are working to talk with her.
