Kids In Room When Mom Shoots Dad, Self


"LA VERGNE, TN — The identities of those dead in what police say appears to be a murder-suicide have now been confirmed.

"Daniel Sim, 28, was likely asleep in the bedroom of his home on 1019 Betty Lou Lane Friday morning when his wife, Nith Sim, 27, shot him, police said.

"Police Chief Ted Boyd said Nith Sim likely took one gun to shoot her husband, but it jammed, prompting her to use another.

"Both guns were found on the floor of the couple's bedroom. Their two children were in the room with them when the shootings occurred, police said.

"Boyd said the children are unharmed, and the state Department of Children's Services is coming in to make arrangements for the children.

"Boyd said it is likely the children will return to New York with Daniel Sim's mother, who was visiting at the time."
