A shooting incident happened on Tuesday at a bustling waterfront park in Pennsylvania, where a Pennsylvania woman stands accused of fatally shooting her estranged husband during an argument.
Pennsylvania Woman Allegedly Shoots Estranged Husband to Death
According to a press release from the Bucks County District Attorney’s Office, Sammar Khan, 40 years old Pennsylvania woman, allegedly shot to death her 38-year-old estranged husband, Faisal Iqbal.
The incident occurred just before 11 a.m. at the Bristol Borough Wharf, where the Pennsylvania woman Khan and estranged husband Iqbal had arranged to meet and “discuss their relationship.”
Witnesses reported that the situation escalated when the Pennsylvania woman began speaking loudly in another language. Suddenly, a distinct “pop sound” was heard, and Iqbal immediately engaged in a physical struggle with Khan.
More gunshots rang out during the altercation as the pair moved away from the coastline towards the parking lot. At least one witness heard Iqbal urging someone to call 911, PEOPLE reported.
Unfortunately, the Pennsylvania woman allegedly shot her estranged husband twice, causing him to collapse in a grassy area between the water and the parking lot. Tragically, the Pennsylvania woman didn’t stop there. She reportedly approached the defenseless Iqbal, shooting him twice in the torso and once in the head, according to authorities.
Responding officers arrived to find the Pennsylvania woman Khan with blood on her clothes. The park, teeming with multiple people at the time of the incident, became a scene of horror.
Iqbal was discovered lying in the grass, his body bearing visible gunshot wounds and was pronounced dead at the scene by the paramedics.
