An Indiana man is accused of shooting his girlfriend in the head in front of her young daughter, then attempting to claim she committed suicide. Authorities were informed of the truth by his mother, who revealed he had sent her a text message confessing to the shooting, according to the police.

Tyairz Glover, 20, faces charges of murder and unlawful possession of a weapon by a felon in relation to the incident on September 26 in Indianapolis, as per court records and local station WXIN. Over the weekend, he was held without bail.

“He shot her (in) the head,” the text message from Glover said, according to his mom, who allegedly spoke to police after receiving it.

Authorities say Glover shot his 19-year-old girlfriend, LaNya Anderson, after an argument. The incident reportedly took place early that Friday morning at the Amber Woods apartments near 38th and Mitthoefer, police reported.

“It’s heartbreaking,” expressed family friend and domestic violence advocate Danyette Smith, who has a daughter acquainted with Anderson and was aware of alleged domestic conflicts between Anderson and Glover.

“I heard my own daughter’s friends crying, explaining how they tried to help,” Smith shared with WXIN. “They wanted to get her out. It’s devastating to hear from a mother’s perspective.”

Glover’s mother reportedly told police that he suffers from mental health problems and has repeatedly threatened violence against others, including her. He once claimed he would kill the mom, according to the mother and police.

“We have to understand that having that education and awareness of what domestic violence red flags look like can ultimately save a life,” Smith said.

Anderson’s parents told The Indianapolis Star that they had also heard there were issues between Glover and the teen.

“I wish I had intervened more,” her mom, Dionna Sweeney, said.

The mother alleges that Anderson called her on the morning of the shooting, right before it happened, and Sweeney could hear them arguing on the other line. The call disconnected in the middle of their conversation and Glover allegedly called back 20 minutes later to let her know Anderson was dead, and that she shot herself.

“I tried as a father to get her away,” Quincy Sweeney, Anderson’s father, told the Indy Star.

“I didn’t win. She kept going back,” Sweeney said. “I felt like I didn’t do enough. What do I tell my grandbaby when she says she wants her mama?”
