A Tennessee woman who tried to abort her own pregnancy in September has been charged with first degree attempted murder.

According to the Murfreesboro Post, Detective Tommy Roberts determined that 31-year-old Anna Yocca attempted to "self-abort" her pregnancy in September.

Police said that Yocca filled her bathroom tub with hot water, got in and then "took a coat hanger and attempted to self-abort her pregnancy.”

Roberts wrote that Yocca became "concerned about her safety" after she lost a lot of blood. She was taken to Saint Thomas Rutherford Hospital by her boyfriend.

Doctors at the hospital said that Yocca stated that she wanted to end her pregnancy. However, doctors were able to save the baby, which weighed only 1.5 pounds at birth. It will reportedly need medical care for the rest of its life because of damage done to the lungs, heart and eyes during the abortion attempt.

Yocca, who is employed at an Amazon fulfilment center, was indicted on charges of first degree attempted murder by a grand jury last week. She was being held at the Rutherford County Adult Detention Center in lieu of $200,000 bond.
