In an apparent fit of rage, an off-duty Neptune police sergeant upset over child custody issues fired multiple rounds at his ex-wife while she sat in her car, killing her as his 7-year-old daughter watched from the front passenger seat of his car, authorities said.
In what witnesses described as a chaotic and violent scene, Sgt. Philip Seidle shot his 51-year-old ex-wife Tamara with his .40-caliber Glock service handgun in two bursts of gunfire: first through the driver's side door, and a second time as he walked around to the front of her car and shot her through the windshield — both times as police were nearby, according to eyewitness accounts and Monmouth County First Assistant Prosecutor Marc C. LeMieux.
The shooting, which left the couple's nine children without a mother and their father in custody, took place before noon in front of numerous horrified witnesses.
