Once officers arrived at the shooting scene, they also discovered that Sabrina Krasniqi had died as well. An investigation determined Sabrina had fatally shot Pajtim several times before turning the gun on herself, and that the incident happened in the two's shared unit, the outlet reported. 

NBC6 also added that police found a teddy bear as well as a box of roses with a heart design inside the unit where the tragedy occurred. 

Since Krasniqi's untimely death, his family and loved ones have spoken out about the senseless nature of the incident, including his sister, Albana Krasniqi Munrett, who posted on Facebook: 

"Pajtimi’s wife chose to take my brother’s life away from him when she shot 5 bullets into his chest. The person he trusted the most, the person he chose to spend his life with was the one who took his away from him," Krasniqi Munrett wrote, adding, "She betrayed him, his love and his trust. She shattered my family. My siblings and I will never be the same. I’m terrified my mother will not ever recover."

Krasniqi Munrett also told NBC6 that her brother "had a love of life that few could ever hope to replicate," the outlet reported.
