BATON ROUGE - A man was arrested Wednesday morning after he broke into his ex-girlfriend's home and was shot twice by her current partner. 

According to a spokesperson for the Baton Rouge Police Department, Jake Raybon went to the house around 9 a.m. and broke through the door with a sledgehammer. 

Once inside, police said Raybon pulled out a gun and started shooting at the victim, her 3-year-old child, and her current boyfriend. Officers said the boyfriend also grabbed a gun and shot Raybon twice.
