A Bountiful man was tackled by neighbors and arrested today after he gunned down and killed his ex-wife in front of their two young children. The boys' mother died and their grandfather was seriously wounded.
At the front door a troubled marriage and a bitter divorce played out to a deadly conclusion. David Drommand's ex-wife brought their two young sons over for a Sunday visit, accompanied by her father.
Lt. Steve Gray, Bountiful Police Dept.: "They got to the door, close proximity of the door, the husband he came out firing a handgun, mother was hit several times, father was hit several times."
She died instantly. Her wounded father wrestled for the gun along with a neighbor and one of the shooter's roommates.
The two young boys evidently saw everything.
Jeff Nemelka: "They were upset and crying. They didn't know. They wanted their dad. But their dad was going to jail and their mother was dead on the porch."
Lt. Steve Gray: Thats a hard thing and its going to impact them for the rest of their lives.
Neighbors told us one other thing that suggests another layer of tragedy. They say the divorced Mom was planning to re-marry in a wedding scheduled later this week. We don't know if that had anything to do with the shooting.
