Jacee spoke with News 4 about what happened and how her family is recovering.
Their day started normally, the couple took their one-year-old son to visit his grandmother.
As they were driving East on I-240, a dark colored vehicle began to harass and break out of control.
“He was going crazy speed, swerving in and out of traffic,” says Jacee.
In an attempt to diffuse the situation, they pulled up to a stop sign in the East. From there, things turned violent.
“He came up to the side of us, rolled down his window, and that’s when it all happened,” Jacee said.
Jacee and Jacob were shot in the face by a bullet.
The bullet first hit Jacob, then police believe the same bullet hit her. Her one-year-old son in the backseat was not injured.
She says the bullet went through her husband’s mouth and jaw.
Then he went to his front. Once he hit his forehead, he came out and threw himself into his cheek.
The couple was taken to OU Health, and the suspect continued driving.
News 4 has reached out to Oklahoma City police for new information. They say the shooter is still out there.
Despite her frustration, Jacee says she is moving forward and is grateful to be alive.
“I’m just blessed. I can’t be more grateful that we’re here and we’re thankful that my son isn’t hurt. We’re making the best of a bad situation,” he says.
Her husband, Jacob, is at home recovering from surgery he had on Tuesday.
Jacee says she has a long road to recovery ahead of her, and possibly more surgeries in the future.
For everyone who wants to donate, the couple has a GoFundMe page. Jacee says they are grateful to those who have already donated.
They also have a Lunch train set up for people to donate meals as well.
As for the suspect, police are asking anyone with information to call Crime Stoppers.
