'I'm Bleeding To Death': 911 Call Reveals Moments After Berkeley Couple Was Shot

BERKELEY, NJ — "I'm bleeding to death," Berkeley Shores resident Jill Kwatkoski told a 911 dispatcher moments after her neighbor, John Adamo, shot her and her husband, Tom Kwatkoski.

NBC shared audio of the 911 call the mother of four made Monday evening, after a years-long feud with her next-door neighbor suddenly turned violent. It's still unclear why it happened.

"My husband, I think he's dead outside," Jill Kwatkoski's frantic voice can be heard saying. "And my leg is killing me."

Her husband was not dead; he is currently hospitalized in critical, but stable, condition, authorities said. Jill Kwatkoski is also hospitalized in stable condition.

She told the dispatcher that more than three rounds had been fired, begging for help.

"I can't leave my kids," she said. "If I do, please tell them I love them."

Jill Kwatkoski said her husband had been working outside of the house when Adamo came over and shot him. Authorities previously said Adamo shot Tom Kwatkoski first before firing into his house, striking his wife.

"There's blood everywhere," she said.

After the shooting, Adamo went back into his own house, kicking off a two-and-a-half hour standoff with the Ocean County SWAT Team.

That ended when officers blew open the home's front door, where they found Adamo dead by suicide in an upstairs bedroom.

A fundraiser has since been set up to support the Kwatkoskis as they recover.
