Neighbor sees mother kill child in Downstate murder-suicide that leaves 5 dead

 First came five gunshots, which Annelise Fiedler knew immediately were too loud for toys.

Fiedler walked out of her home and saw her next-door neighbor Sara McMeen standing over a baby on the ground.

“I asked her, ‘Is everything all right?’” Fiedler recalled Saturday. “She said: ‘No, everything is not all right.’”

Then McMeen did the unthinkable, Fiedler said. “She put the gun to the baby and she shot it.”
