Two people are dead in Midwest City, the result of an apparent murder suicide at an apartment complex near Reno and Air Depot. Yorkshire Apartments resident Joh Leahr heard a number of gunshots. Witnesses tell police 29-year-old Patrick Ball chased 21-year-old Amber Wright out of an apartment after some sort of dispute and shot her several times before shooting himself in the chest. Police will not call the incident a murder-suicide until the medical examiner's office releases the exact cause of death for Ball and Wright. The couple had a child together, who was at a local daycare at the ime of the incident. The child has been taken into protective custody.
A compilation of daily news articles from around the United States about deaths (including both people and animals) that appear to occur in the context of a past or present intimate relationship, focusing on 2009-present. (NOTE: this blog is limited to incidents that appear in the media and are captured by our search terms. We recognize this is not an exhaustive portrayal of all deaths resulting from intimate violence.) When is society going to realize intimate violence makes victims of us all?
