Via Yahoo Sports:
“Former UTSA Roadrunners football player Michael Egwuagu was charged with murder Friday for the fatal stabbing of his pregnant sister, Jennifer Chioma Ebichi.
Travis County police responded to a 911 call at a Pflugerville, Texas, home — just north of Austin — where Ebichi, 32, was found on the kitchen floor with multiple stab wounds around 5 p.m.
Egwuagu, 25, was arrested in connection with the murder shortly after police arrived at the scene and could possibly face more than one murder charge. Police confirmed via autopsy that Ebichi was in her first trimester of pregnancy. His bond has been set at $500,000.”
Egwuagu played safety at UTSA from 2013 to ’16 and also played for the Chicago Bears during their rookie minicamp in 2017.
