Dr. Jean Dominique Foureau {American University of the Caribbean School of Medicine}.
A Broward emergency medicine doctor killed a woman in Coconut Creek Saturday before taking his own life in what detectives are investigating as a murder-suicide, police said.
Dr. Jean Dominique Foureau, 34, killed the 38-year-old woman around 4 a.m. at a home in the 4800 block of Acardian Trail in Coconut Creek’s Paloma Lakes community, according to Coconut Creek Police spokesman Scotty Leamon.
Authorities had responded to the home after receiving a call about a domestic incident, police said.
Additional information, including the victim’s name, was not immediately made public Monday.
Foureau was a 2024 graduate of Broward Health System’s Emergency Medicine Residency, where he was “trained to deliver high-quality, compassionate care in fast-paced, critical settings,” according to the system’s website.
“Doctor JD,” as he was known to patients, grew up in Pompano Beach and graduated from Deerfield Beach High School. He enlisted in the U.S. Army as a medic and continued his military service before and after medical school at American University of the Caribbean School of Medicine.
Fourneau served as the Emergency Battalion Surgeon for the 2-124 Infantry Battalion in the Florida Army National Guard, according to a social media post by the university’s alumni engagement office.
