TUCSON, Ariz. (AP) — Tucson police say a married couple have been found dead in at an apartment complex in an apparent murder-suicide.

Police say officers were called out Wednesday night to an apartment complex in the 7400 block of East Speedway.

They say the victims are a 63-year-old woman and her 57-year-old husband. Police say the two died of gunshot wounds but they won't disclose who the shooter was. The names of the man and woman aren't immediately available.

The Arizona Daily Star says the bodies were found by the woman's brother, who lives in the same apartment complex and hadn't heard from his sister since Sunday.

The Star says the man told police that his sister had recently been diagnosed with a serious illness.
