HUNTSVILLE, AL -- Huntsville police have identified a man who killed himself after shooting his girlfriend in the head this morning.
Police spokesman Sgt. Mark Roberts said 41-year-old Marvin Pease of Huntsville was driving on Winchester Road when he pulled out a gun and shot his girlfriend, 38-year-old Donna Johnson.
Pease then turned the gun on himself and crashed the black Chevrolet Trailblazer into a mailbox near Rolling Hills Road. The car came to a rest on the sidewalk in front of the Kingdom Hall of Jehovah's Witnesses, emergency workers said. The incident happened at 9:30 a.m. today.
Pease was pronounced dead shortly after the 9:30 a.m. shooting. Johnson was taken to Huntsville Hospital, and her injuries do not appear to be life-threatening, Roberts said.
