BIG BEAR LAKE -- The San Bernardino County Coroner released the names today of an elderly couple who died Monday in what the Sheriff's Department called a murder/suicide.
Officials say 78-year-old Robert Foose called San Bernardino County Sheriff's dispatchers about 3:15 a.m. Monday, saying he killed his wife, Mona Foose, 80.
When deputies arrived at the couple's home in the 200 block of Knoll Road, they found both suffering from gunshot wounds.
Both were pronounced dead at the scene. Both were found with "upper body trauma," according to the Coroner's office.
The Coroner will conduct autopsies to determine the cause of death in both cases.
Sheriff's detectives are conducting a homicide investigation.
Anyone with information about the case can call sheriff's Detective David Johnson or Sgt. Frank Montanez at 909-387-8313 or 909-387-3589.
