A GUNMAN allegedly killed two people including the mom of his child while opening fire from an apartment balcony.
Cops swooped to an apartment complex in Brown Deer, Wisconsin on Saturday morning amid reports of gunfire.
Among the victims was Arieuna Reed, 23, who had a two-year-old child named Egypt with the suspected shooter.
Brother Aaron Reed told TMJ4: “She was everything to us. It’s like a hole I ain’t never going to be able to close.
“She was the life. The life of the family. Anytime we came together, we always looked to my little sister to keep the joint going."
Her uncle Guy Alicea-Reed said he was going to miss her “dearly”.
Her parents told 12 News that she had just gone to soccer practice with her kid and was dropping him off at his father's apartment.
Arieuna was a medical assistant who was gearing to start her own vending machine business.

A 31-year-old man, who has not been identified, and the suspect, 26, were also among the victims.
A child was in the gunman’s apartment but was uninjured. The tot is now with family.
Cops said the relationships between the suspect and victims are unclear as investigations continue, but say two knew each other.
No cops were injured as the gunman opened fire. A K-9 patrol car was hit but the animal wasn't wounded.
Witness Eric Lewis, 36, said he was woken up by the sound of gunfire and saw a man holding a weapon, according to the New York Times.
He claimed there was a “dispute” between the man and woman before she ran away.
Lewis said the gunman managed to chase the woman down and opened fire.
Several rounds were fired from the balcony as Lewis tried to help those who were injured.
Lewis suffered an injury to his right ankle but was treated in hospital.
The motive for the shooting remains under investigation as the probe continues.
Brown Deer Police Chief Peter Nimmer revealed: “There’s no reason to believe that there’s any danger to the community at this time.”
