Walt Harris’ stepdaughter Aniah Blanchard reportedly ‘went for the gun’ before she was shot to death

UFC heavyweight Walt Harris’ stepdaughter Aniah Blanchard reportedly fought back against her attacker after she was abducted and later killed.

New court documents released this week provided a statement from a witness who claimed 30-year-old Ibraheem Yazeed told him he shot a girl, presumably Blanchard, after she attempted to go for his gun after he allegedly kidnapped her outside a convenience store in Auburn, Ala.

“The subject further advised during a subsequent conversation with Yazeed, Yazeed admitted to shooting a girl and stated the girl ‘went for the gun,’’’ Det. Josh Mixon wrote in the court documents released.
