“They were a great family and she was a great mom,” Victoria Nadolski, a neighbor of Bell's, told WFSB-TV.
“I keep hoping it’s a nightmare and I’ll wake up and it wouldn’t have happened,” she said.
Bell lived with her husband, the two children who were victims of the shooting, and a third child, a boy who attends middle school, according to reports.
The Courant reported that the middle-school child wasn't home at the time of the shooting, but the husband was there.
