INDIANAPOLIS, Ind. —A former Upstate youth pastor has released a statement regarding the death of his pregnant wife, who police say was shot in the head during a home invasion robbery.

Amanda Grace Blackburn, wife of Resonate Church pastor Davey Blackburn, died Wednesday morning in Indianapolis, according to a Facebook post by the church.

A home invasion was reported at 8:30 a.m. Tuesday, according to WYFF News 4’s NBC sister station in Indianapolis. No arrests have been made in the case.

"We found the adult female victim in the home unconscious (with) head trauma. She was transported to Methodist Hospital in critical condition," Officer Rafael Diaz said.

WTHR reported that Blackburn, 28, was in the home with her 1-year-old toddler, who was not injured. Friends and family said Blackburn is 12-weeks pregnant.

The victim’s husband, Davey Blackburn, was reportedly at the gym and found his wife wounded when he returned home at 8:30 a.m.

WTHR reported that three hours before Blackburn was found, a nearby house was burglarized and electronics and other valuables were taken. Police said it’s not yet clear if that break-in is connected to the shooting.

Davey Blackburn was a youth pastor at NewSpring in Anderson for four years before moving to Indianapolis to start Resonate Church in January 2012. He is a graduate of Southern Wesleyan University in Central, where he played baseball.
