A pregnant mother of one was gunned down in her bedroom with her four-month-old baby boy sleeping next to her.

Amber Baker, 20, was shot Sunday morning in her Central Fresno, California apartment.

Family members told ABC 30 that the shooting happened during a party the young mom, who was six weeks pregnant with her second child, was having at her apartment. Amber was apparently in bed with her son sleeping son next to her when she was shot.

Police said they responded to a 911 call at 5:45 a.m. at the Griffith Gardens apartment complex.

"We found a female, a white female, in her 20s, I believe she was 20 years old and she was suffering from trauma to her upper body," officer Joe Gomez told Your Central Valley. "The officers that arrived performed CPR until EMS got there and she was pronounced deceased there at the apartment."

Authorities said several people were in the apartment when they arrived and they have all been brought in for questioning.

"She graduated high school, and she did everything she was supposed to do," Amber's sister Katie Martin told ABC. "She has a beautiful baby that she loves so much, and he is going to grow up without a mom, and it's devastating."

Amber's family said the baby boy was fine and is staying with his father.

Neighbors said moments before the shooting, they heard arguing coming from the apartment.

"From what we've heard so far, someone went into her room, an unknown male shot her," Martin said. "Somebody knows something and they're not saying. And we just don't understand why someone would take her life in the middle of the night.”

Amber's other sister, Cassie Baker, told ABC 7 she thought whoever shot her sister was after money because the pregnant mom had just got her tax refund.

"Honestly, that's the only thing I can think of because my sister was just too nice," she said. "She was too kindhearted, she loved everyone."
