Kids At School While Mom & Dad Die At Home

"KENDALL, FL — Miami-Dade Police are investigating a deadly double shooting in Kendall.

"The victims are believed to be a couple, and detectives believe this may have been the result of a murder-suicide. The couple were found deceased inside their apartment Tuesday morning while the two children who live there were at school. Both children are accounted for in the school system and were not home at the time of the shooting.

"Miami-Dade Police responded to reports of gunshots at the apartment complex located along Southwest 112nd Avenue, just North of Kendall Drive, at around 8 in the morning. Police found the deceased couple inside a second floor apartment. Investigators have not released the identities of the victims.

"Police said it appears the man shot and killed the woman before turning the gun on himself. `According to investigators, at this point, the preliminary investigation is leaning towards a domestic situation, possibly a murder-suicide,` said Miami-Dade Police Detective Alvaro Zabaleta. `Of course, it's to early to confirm any of that. We're allowing crime scene now to process the scene, and we'll have to wait the medical examiner's office to give the final word as far as cause of death.`

"The scene is still very active and police remain on the scene."
