A Louisiana woman has been arrested after allegedly shooting and killing her 1-year-old child on New Year's Day. According to Sulphur Police Department spokesman Maj. Jason Gully, police responded to a call to Kristin Bass' home sometime after 8 p.m. on Thursday, January 1. Upon arrival, authorities reportedly discovered that the mother had allegedly shot her little girl, Acelynn Moss. Bass, 28, was taken into custody and charged with one count of first-degree murder. She is currently behind bars with her bail set for $10 million. The girl's father, Bradley Moss, was at home at the time of the alleged incident. After claiming he heard a loud noise that was later confirmed to be the gun in question going off, the father said he immediately rushed into the room and allegedly discovered that Acelynn had been shot. Bass was still allegedly holding a weapon when the father arrived on the scene.

"I almost lost two babies. I lost one because her mama wanted to send her to God," he claimed to the outlet. "[My older daughter] said, 'Help me, Daddy.'
