Terrance Carroll, 51, killed Isaiah Cobb, 33, of Hillside, before turning the gun on himself around 11:30 p.m. Saturday, June 10, on the 100 block of Shephard Avenue in Newark, according to Daily Voice sources with direct knowledge of the incident.

Cobb was pronounced dead at the scene while Carroll was pronounced dead at the hospital. Carroll's wife was also hospitalized after he assaulted her, according to sources.

Carroll's loved ones remembered him as a devoted dad of five who "put his kids before anything and his family."

The investigation is active and ongoing, and though no arrests have been made, there appears to be no threat to the public.
