Two die in apparent murder-suicide

HOUSTON (KTRK) Authorities arrived at the home on Chew and Hershe in east Houston just after midnight. They heard someone scream, but couldn't get in because of burglar bars on the home.

A wrecker was called to pull the bars off and when officers got in, they found a man and woman shot to death. The woman's co-worker notified police of a possible domestic disturbance.

"The co-worker that did call advised that she had made statements about ongoing problems between her and the boyfriend," said Brian Evans with the Houston Police Department.

The co-worker called to check on the woman when she didn't show up for work last night and noticed she sounded distressed.
