Mom Was Recording A TikTok When Her 'Toxic' Ex Allegedly Shot And Killed Her

A mother of three was allegedly shot and killed by her ex-boyfriend Saturday morning while she was recording a TikTok video with her friend.

Joshua K. Thompson, 25, was arrested and accused of fatally shooting Kaitlyn Lee, also 25, who heard him banging on the window with a handgun while she was in the kitchen of an apartment in New Albany, Indiana, The Kansas City Star and WDRB reported, citing a probable cause affidavit.

The TikTok video, reviewed by New Albany police, showed Lee and her friend “laughing, dancing and lip-syncing to a song,” before a blast can be heard, the affidavit said. Police said smoke could be seen in the video before it ended.

Lee’s friend told police that Lee asked Thompson, “What are you doing here?” before he fired through the window, according to the affidavit.

A neighbor who witnessed the shooting told WDRB that she “heard a man screaming” before police ran into the apartment.

“My dad and her grandpa are really good friends, it’s such a tragedy to witness all of this,” the neighbor told the outlet.

Police said in the affidavit that Thompson called his brother immediately after the shooting and was advised to call 911. Thompson allegedly told dispatchers he “shot the mother of his child,” The Kansas City Star reported.

During his interview with authorities, Thompson said he went to the apartment that morning to see if Lee had other men over and waited outside for 20 to 30 minutes before looking through the window.

Lee’s friend told police that Lee and Thompson had been in a “toxic” relationship with each other, according to the warrant. She continued by allegedly telling officers that Lee once stated, “If she was ever found dead, Joshua killed her,” The Kansas City Star reported.
