“Approximately 7:09 a.m. m., the Jersey City Police Department was notified of the shooting on the third floor of 340 Bergen Avenue,” prosecutors wrote. That’s the address of a three-story residential building called the Toy Factory Apartments.

Police officers arrived to find King suffering from apparent gunshot wounds, prosecutors said. First responders took her to the Jersey City Medical Center, but she was pronounced dead at 8:06 a.m. The medical examiner has not revealed a cause or manner of death.
