Elizabeth Holly Martin, 30, of Rosenberg, Texas, was shot and killed on January 28, 2015, at the Brittany Square Apartments where she lived with her three children and 29-year-old Jeffrey Obersteller. Martin’s ex-boyfriend climbed to the second story, broke a window to gain entry and began shooting. Martin was pronounced dead at the scene; Obersteller was struck by five bullets and airlifted to Memorial Hermann-The Texas Medical Center.
Rosenberg police located the suspect at Traylor Stadium near Lamar Consolidated High School. A confrontation between officers and the suspect left the suspect dead; investigators with the Texas Rangers were called to determine whether the suspect shot himself or was fatally wounded by officers. A handgun was recovered. Martin’s three children were unharmed and placed with relatives. Reports say the suspect had a history of violence and prior altercations with Martin, and the couple’s relationship had ended about a month earlier.
