A married couple was found shot dead Sunday in a Country Walk home in what appeared to be a murder-suicide, according to Miami-Dade police.
Police got a call about 6:30 p.m. of shots fired at a home at 14502 SW 139th Ave. Circle East., police spokeswoman Rosanna Cordero-Stutz said. Emergency units arrived and found a husband and wife inside, both with gunshot wounds.
“Apparently, he shot her and then turned the gun on himself,” Cordero-Stutz said.
Members of the couple’s family were in the home at the time and heard the gunfire, she said; however, they did not see what happened because the husband and wife were alone in the bedroom when the shots were fired.
It was the family members who discovered the bodies.
Police identified the couple as Luis and Mireya Irigoyen. He was 69. She was 65.
Cordero-Stutz said it was too early to know the motive behind the shootings.
