A third-grade teacher in New Jersey was shot at her Jersey City home early Tuesday, allegedly a victim of domestic violence at the hands of her husband, who was arrested out of state hours later, a high-level police source and other law enforcement sources confirmed. Sources identified the victim as #TemaraKing, who celebrated her 35th birthday just two weeks ago and taught at Public School Number 5 on Merseles Street. She was killed at her apartment on Bergen Avenue shortly before 7:30 a.m. Sources said her 14-year-old daughter was the one who called 911 and told the dispatcher her dad shot her multiple times. #LucasCooper, 39, was arrested on Jan. 24 in Pennsylvania, after an hours-long manhunt in connection with the shooting death of 35-year-old Tamara King, of Jersey City, according to a press release from the Hudson County Prosecutor’s Office. He is charged with murder, endangering the welfare of a child and weapons offenses.
