A 41-year-old Connecticut man allegedly killed another man he found in bed with his ex-girlfriend after breaking into her home on Saturday.

Jabari Bush has been charged with murder, home invasion and criminal possession of a firearm in the shooting death of 41-year-old Terrence Cramer, the Stratford Police Department said. Cramer was a divorced father of two young boys and an experienced firefighter for the City of Bridgeport.

'You're Here with Another Man!'

Police responded on Saturday at about 1:44 a.m. to a home on Feeley Street, where they found Cramer suffering from a gunshot wound. He was later pronounced dead at the scene.

Bush was arrested later Saturday after a brief vehicle pursuit, officers say. According to a probable cause arrest affidavit, Bush's ex-girlfriend told cops she was sleeping in bed with Cramer when she was "awakened by someone inside her bedroom" whom she claimed was Bush.

She said Bush shouted something to the effect of "you're here with another man!" before he punched her in the face, the affidavit stated. The woman then said she saw "sparks" as if a gun went off. She then heard Cramer yell "I just got shot!"

Bush Captured on Doorbell Camera Footage Breaking into the Home

Cramer suffered a gunshot wound to his right inner thigh and was lying in a pool of blood when cops arrived on the scene. Investigators later went through the Ring doorbell camera footage and were able to identify Bush as the suspect. He was seen standing in front of the door throughout the night before entering the apartment through an unlocked door.

The woman told detectives she had dated Bush for about five years, but the relationship ended in March 2025. They dated on and off until January before she dumped him for good, according to the complaint. She then started a relationship with Cramer in February.

Woman Had Blocked Bush Because He Started Calling Her Incessantly, Messaging Her on Facebook

The woman said Bush began calling her incessantly in March, which caused her to block his number while she also ignored his repeated Facebook messages. Bush also showed up to her work one day. When she ignored him, he began to "yell at her angrily," according to the complaint. Bush remains in jail on a $3 million bond. His next court date is set for April 14.
