Abuse Survivor Shot at Trampoline Park
29 Sep
Summary
- Woman killed trying to escape abusive marriage.
- Suspect arrested for shooting wife and her friend.
- Suspect has prior gun conviction and reduced sentence.
Samantha Cromwell, a 29-year-old woman, was killed outside an Urban Air Adventure Park in the Arden area, according to her father. She had been attempting to escape an abusive marriage to Edward Tucker, 36, with whom she shared a son.
Tucker allegedly confronted Cromwell at the park on Saturday. Both Cromwell and her friend Faith were shot; Cromwell died from her injuries, while Faith is in critical condition. Sacramento police have arrested Tucker, a Fresno resident, on homicide-related charges.
Tucker's criminal history includes a guilty plea in May 2026 for firing a gun into an occupied home. He was sentenced to three years but did not serve the full term due to jail credits, as reported by the Fresno County District Attorney's Office.
Cromwell's father described her as kind-hearted and family-oriented, expressing a desire for Tucker to live with the daily realization of his actions rather than receive the death penalty.
