"LAKE MARY, FL - Seminole County investigators say a husband and wife were gunned down this morning in their Lake Mary neighborhood and the shooter was her ex-husband.

"Lt. Jim Clark with the sheriff's office says 59-year-old John Marshall rode a scooter to a home on Holbrook Circle near S. Sundance Drive and opened fire on Orval Burkhart, 59, chasing him down the street before two bullets found their mark.

"Marshall's ex-wife, Dale Leigh Burkhart, 54, was returning home when she saw what happened and tried to flee in her car, but was shot to death behind the wheel.

"Marshall then shot himself with a 9 mm pistol, dying ten feet from his wife's car, Clark said.

"Stunned neighbors witnessed the violence.

"A child who lives at the home was in school when the gunfire broke out around 7:30 Thursday morning,
