WASHINGTON TOWNSHIP (AP) -- A woman fatally shot a New Jersey Transit bus driver Tuesday in a parking lot and then killed herself, officials said.
Prosecutors in Gloucester County said the shooting happened Tuesday afternoon in the parking lot of a bus depot in Washington Township.
Prosecutors said Woodbury resident Piacenta Jackson, 44, shot Sicklerville resident Ryon Reynolds, 45. They said Jackson then shot and killed herself in nearby Mantua Township.
The bus depot was shut down, but buses continued to operate.
Investigators haven't said what the relationship was between Jackson and Reynolds.
Washington and Mantua townships are investigating the incident.
