Folsom SWAT officers return to the staging after they discovered the bodies of two adults in a condominium what was was believed to be a domestic dispute that turned into a murder suicide.

Folsom police responded to the Cobblestone Place condominium complex on the 200 block on Wales Drive after reports of screams for help and gunshots were heard about 9 p.m.

Folsom’s SWAT team entered the condominium around 11 p.m. and found a man and a woman dead in what they believe was a murder-suicide.

A woman was heard screaming “Somebody help me,” before several gunshots, between four and five, were heard. There was a period of silence and then another gunshot was heard.

Police made attempts to contact the people inside the condominium, but to no avail. Meanwhile, residents were instructed to either evacuate or to lock themselves in their homes, police said.

Folsom police have responded to the same address on a domestic disturbance call.
