BLOOMINGTON, Ill. (WMBD) — A man was arrested in Bloomington after allegedly giving abortion-inducing medicine to a pregnant mother without her consent.

Emerson Evans, 31, of Normal, has been arrested for intentional homicide of an unborn child, Bloomington police spokesman Bryce Janssen said.

He said that at approximately 7 p.m. on Friday, Aug. 22, the Bloomington Police and Fire departments went to a home on a report of a pregnant person having a medical emergency.

He said Evans was later found and arrested. He remains in custody at the McLean County Jail.
