BATON ROUGE, La. (WAFB) - The East Baton Rouge Sheriff’s Office is searching for a man after his girlfriend was found dead at an apartment complex.
Deputies said Tonyetta Loveless was found dead around noon on Wednesday, Nov. 29, at the Ivy Park Apartments on Jones Creek Road. She had just turned 42 years old the day before.
The victim and her boyfriend were allegedly fighting the evening before she was found, and he was allegedly seen striking her and brandishing a gun at her, according to the sheriff’s office.
After gathering evidence, detectives obtained an arrest warrant for her boyfriend, Andre Weatherspoon, 39. He is wanted on the charge of battery of a dating partner.
Deputies said Weatherspoon is believed to have fled the area.
Loveless’ family released the following statement after her death:
“She had a beautiful spirit, personality, and a smile that lit up the room. Leaving behind her children, and grandchildren, to grasp this pain is difficult to witness. She’s home with her mother, Linda Smith, now, so please get your rest, my angel. This sister bond will never end, I love you, baby.”
