Police in Baton Rouge are currently looking to talk to former LSU lineman (and prospective first round pick) La'el Collins over the week-old shooting death of a pregnant woman.

Collins is not considered a suspect (but rather a source for potential information) in the slaying of 29-year-old Brittany MillsHe was believed to have previously dated Mills. Police think that Mills knew her killer, and that she opened the door of her home to the perpetrator before she was shot multiple times last Friday night. She was eight months pregnant at the time. According to reports, her baby was removed and is now in stable condition.

In just two days an NFL team is likely going to select Collins, meaning that a couple organizations are attempting to figure out whether or not the child is believed to be his.
