A teacher from Westside High School, Rebecca Geiger, 45, and her husband, Rory Geiger, 44, tragically lost their lives in a shooting on the southwest edge of the Omaha metro area.

The incident occurred Monday morning in a neighborhood south of Highway 50 and Giles Road and is believed by investigators to have originated from a domestic violence altercation.

Omaha police responded to a 911 call around 3 a.m. from South 143rd Street and Meadows Parkway.

The caller, reportedly the couple’s daughter, told dispatchers that her father had shot her mother and was now pointing the gun at her.

Authorities noted they had visited the same residence about a month prior for a domestic incident and had been warned by the individuals not to return.
