Report via WTVD -- MILWAUKEE, Wis -- A Wisconsin mother is mourning the loss of her 2-month-old son, who was born premature, after police said he died during a domestic violence dispute.
Police said Jaquirion Dancer was in his mother's arms when the beating began.
According to WISN-TV, Jaquirion was taken to the hospital but died a few hours later.
"You know, this is her little boy who was born not long ago, a preemie who was fighting and doing well, and for her this is a huge tragedy," said Rev. Dan Quakkelaar, a pastor, who met with the mother to offer comfort and support. "You can tell from the picture that he was a beautiful boy and full of life, and it's hard to deal with when a life like that is lost and so tragically and so unnecessarily."
Officers said they have a suspect in custody.
