INDEPENDENCE TOWNSHIP, Mich. (AP) — Authorities say a man's fixation on a young woman led to a weekend murder-suicide that left the woman's mother and the man dead.
The Detroit Free Press reports (http://bit.ly/oTwbJH) 26-year-old Matthew Adair fatally shot 56-year-old Lou Ann Hinze and wounded 50-year-old Charles Hinze in the shoulder before fatally shooting himself Saturday at the Hinzes' home in Oakland County's Independence Township.
Authorities say 19-year-old Kristen Hinze told authorities she knew Adair from a thrift shop where she worked.
After returning home from a night out, Kristen Hinze called 911 about 2:40 a.m. Saturday to report a man in the house with a gun. Investigators say Adair began choking her, and her parents were shot after they were alerted by their daughter's screams.
The home is about 30 miles northwest of Detroit.
