<p class="mol-para-with-font">First responders pulled Bernardi from the vehicle and rushed him to University Medical Center, where he later succumbed to his injuries.<br />

When questioned by police, the murder suspect told detectives that Bernardi was abusive and had threatened to kill her, which is why she had the firearm in the car, according to an arrest report obtained by the <a class="" href="http://www.reviewjournal.com/crime/homicides/report-says-las-vegas-woman-hid-gun-car-shooting-boyfriend" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">Las Vegas Review Journal.<br />
</a>The document states that when Bernardi, who was in the driver&#8217;s seat, pulled over and turned around to face her, Rheamount grabbed the .380-caliber handgun and fired.</p>

<p>The live-in lovers had been dating for only five months, Rheamount told Las Vegas police that the relationship became toxic when Bernardi became physically and verbally abusive. There were no records of her reporting the abuse.<br />
In the early hours of Sunday morning, Rheamount told police, they got into an argument while gambling at the Cannery. She drove as the pair headed home from the casino, as they got home but the argument escalated. Bernardi got out of the vehicle and went inside their apartment to pack up his property, the arrest report said. Rheamount stayed in the car.<br />
According to the report, Rheamount claimed she “had a premonition something bad was going to happen,” so she removed her handgun from her purse and placed it under the driver’s seat.</p>
