Who Was Wendy Duan, Alief Teacher Killed In Her Backyard?

Wendy Duan, 28, was a third-grade reading and language arts teacher at Boone Elementary School in nearby Houston, Texas.

As previously reported, cops responded Saturday at 9:50 p.m. to her home on Oxford Mills Lane.

“Neighbors told police they heard shots fired,” Adolph’s previous statement said. “When officers arrived, they found a 28-year woman dead in the backyard with multiple gunshot wounds.

The woman lived alone at the house and no one else was there when police arrived.”

Authorities did not detail a motive but said the shooting followed an argument between Thompson and Duan.

Who Was Wendy Duan, Alief’s Teacher Killed In Her Backyard?

According to Sugar Land Police Sergeant Matt Levan, Duan and Thompson had met on the dating site ‘Meet Me’ just days before the fatal shooting.

“They had just met face to face or in person on New Year’s Eve, so exactly a week prior to the murder,” Levan said.

Investigators said the two were hanging out with Duan’s friends at her home on Oxford Mills Lane in Sugar Land when they started arguing.

“It had started inside the house. It kind of spilled into the backyard of the house. At that point, gunfire erupted, and our witnesses had actually left the house at that point for their own safety.

She was shot multiple times, over 10 times, so a very brutal, very callous murder,” Levan said.
