Man Arrested For Shooting, Killing Woman In Front Of Her Children In Fort Worth

FORT WORTH (CBSDFW.COM) - A man was arrested in the case of a mother fatally shot in front of her children at a Fort Worth home last week.

Police responded to the 6000 block of McKaskle Drive last Friday and found Karen Finney, 32, inside the home dead from gunshot wounds. Police believed this was a domestic situation and that the victim and her children knew the shooter.

"She's got young children, it's just sad. A young mother, just sad. I'm upset," said one of her neighbors.

A next-door neighbor had called 911 after Finney's three children ran to his house, saying their mother was shot.

Police announced Thursday the arrest of Jarvis Franklin in connection to the deadly shooting. He was booked into jail on a murder charge with a bond set at $500,000.
