Couple Found Shot In Bedroom
"CLEMMONS, NC — The shooting deaths of a Forsyth County couple appear to be a murder-suicide, according to a preliminary investigation by the Forsyth County Sheriff's Office.
"Alpa Vishnu Patel, 39, and her husband, Hemang Mahendra Patel, 43, were found with life-threatening gunshot wounds in the bedroom of their Clemmons home on Barrington Oaks Drive. Deputies found the couple about 6:10 a.m.
"The Patels were rushed to Wake Forest Baptist Medical Center. Hemang Patel died just before 2 p.m. Monday, and Alpa Patel died about seven hours later.
"The couple had two children, a son and a daughter. The son, who is about 18 or 19, called 911. The daughter was out of town at the time of the shooting.
"Chief Deputy Brad Stanley said that based on the preliminary investigation and the evidence collected so far, it appears that the shootings were a murder-suicide. Detectives are trying to determine who shot whom, he said."
