Authorities allege he blocked her car as she pulled in for her shift and entered her vehicle, leaving behind two suicide notes on the dashboard.
According to prosecutors, the situation escalated when a food delivery driver approached Brandon Alexander and asked him to move his car.
At that point, Victoria Alexander exited the vehicle and ran toward the building in an attempt to get away.
Officials said Brandon Alexander pursued her inside the facility, where he opened fire.
Authorities stated that Victoria Alexander was shot multiple times inside the building. Emergency responders pronounced her dead at the scene.
Brandon Alexander then turned the weapon on himself, according to investigators. He was transported to a nearby hospital but later died from his injuries.
The Atlantic County Prosecutor’s Office said the incident appears to be isolated. No other individuals were injured during the shooting.
Investigators have not released details about the contents of the two suicide notes allegedly left in the vehicle.
The shooting occurred during the early morning hours as staff were arriving at the facility, a rehabilitation center located in Egg Harbor Township.
Authorities have not provided additional information about whether employees or patients were present at the time of the incident inside the building.
Law enforcement officials have not indicated any prior calls to the facility related to the couple, but confirmed that the two were estranged at the time of the shooting.
The investigation remains ongoing as authorities continue to review evidence and gather information about the events leading up to the incident.
The case adds to a series of domestic-related incidents that have resulted in workplace violence, with law enforcement reiterating that the event was limited to the individuals involved.
Officials have not announced any further updates regarding the timeline of the investigation or whether additional information will be released about the circumstances surrounding the couple’s separation.
