Waianae woman killed in Planned Parenthood shooting

The father of Waianae woman Jennifer Markovsky said that his daughter was among the three victims killed in the Colorado Springs Planned Parenthood shooting on Friday.

John Ah-King, who told The Denver Post that his 36-year-old daughter Jennifer Markovsky, was accompanying a friend to a Planned Parenthood clinic that day when a gunman opened fire. He described Markovsky as a kind-hearted, lovable person with two children.

“I was waiting to see you soon, I’m going to miss you,” Ah-King wrote in a post on Facebook mourning his daughter.

According to Markovsky’s Facebook page, she was a 1997 graduate of Waianae High School.

On Nov. 27, 57-year-old Robert Lewis Dear open fired at the clinic, killing three people and injuring nine others.

Among the victims was 44-year-old University of Colorado police officer Garrett Swasey. The Associated Press has not yet confirmed the identity of the third victim.
