MASON -- Ingham County Sheriff Office officials said this afternoon that a man and a woman found dead late Thursday near Mason died in a murder-suicide.
A man and a woman were found dead in a home in the 400 block of Hanna Road late Thursday. Both were killed by gunshot wounds, police said.
Police this afternoon released the name of the man as Timothy Hendricks, 53. The name of the woman, who police said was 62 years old, was withheld pending notification of next of kin, officials said.
The Michigan State Police Crime Lab’s analysis confirmed that Hendricks shot and killed the woman, and then himself, police said.
Officials reported that they had been called to the address on numerous occasions to deal with attempted suicide situations. Hendricks and the woman had been divorced for about two years, but still lived together, according to police.
Police were called to the scene by Hendrick’s brother at about 8:30 p.m. on Thursday, after he stopped by the residence and saw one of the bodies through the window.
