An elderly couple died of gunshot wounds in an apparent murder-suicide early Thursday, police said.
The victims were identified as William Mehner, 87, and his wife, Janet Mehner, also 87.
Officers responded to a 911 call that came in about 6 a.m. from an elderly man who reported a murder-suicide in progress inside the home in the 800 block of Northwest 29th Court, said police spokesman David Jones. ``The dispatcher attempted to get more information, but the call was disconnected,'' Jones said.
Police did not reveal a motive for the shootings.
Neighbors said the couple had lived in the house since the 1950s. They were seen at a St. Patrick's Day block party Wednesday night, neighbors said, and nothing appeared unusual.
