A Pennsylvania<\/a> mother of three was shot and killed in what family members describe as a final act of courage \u2014 stepping in to protect another woman moments before a gunman opened fire outside a bar.<\/p>\n

Jessica Hilliard, 34, was killed early Sunday outside Niki\u2019s Quick Six in Parks Township, Armstrong County, Pittsburgh\u2019s Action News 4 (WTAE) reported.<\/a><\/p>\n

Pennsylvania State Police<\/a> confirmed to WTAE that the situation spiraled shortly after 1 a.m., when a verbal altercation broke out in the parking lot.<\/p>\n

It escalated when a woman ran into the bar claiming she had been attacked, prompting several people, including Hilliard, to rush outside.<\/p>\n

Hilliard was among those trying to intervene when she was shot multiple times in the chest, according to the report.<\/p>\n

The suspected gunman, identified by WTAE as 36-year-old David Dunmire, allegedly pulled out a gun and fired multiple rounds into a crowd while running away, striking four people.<\/p>\n

Three others were wounded in the gunfire, including a 24-year-old woman who was listed in critical condition. Two men were reported to be in stable condition, WTAE said, citing police.<\/p>\n

Family members told the outlet that Hilliard wasn\u2019t involved in the dispute but stepped in because she believed someone was in danger.<\/p>\n

A GoFundMe created for Hilliard\u2019s family reinforces that account, saying she was killed “while trying to stop a man from hurting a woman,” and describing her final moments as an act of “courage and selflessness.”<\/p>\n
