The Vanderburgh County Coroner’s Office has identified the baby who was shot and killed Friday.
She was nine-month-old Iowa Meriweather of Henderson Kentucky.
An autopsy showed she died of a single gunshot wound to the head.
Her father, 20 year old Anthony Meriweather, was arrested late Friday night charged with neglect of a dependent causing death.
Meriweather originally told authorities he was carrying the baby inside and she was the victim of a drive-by shooting.
Police found a shell casing in the bathroom of a home.
