Shooter Dead, Victim Expected To Survive

"WEST PALM BEACH, FL — West Palm Beach Police released the names of the man who shot a woman last night before killing himself.

"Vincent Edwards shot Chenel Monrose and then turned the gun on himself shortly after 6 p.m. outside a single-family home in the 900 block of 43rd Street, police said this afternoon.

"Monrose, who was shot in the head, was taken in critical condition to St. Mary’s Medical Center. She is expected to survive. Edwards died at the scene.

"A woman who did not want to give her name said the couple recently had experienced domestic troubles.

"`I knew they were having issues, like all couples do,` she said. `But I didn’t know it was to that extent, where he’d want to take her life.`

"Investigators were checking the man and woman’s backgrounds late Monday to see whether there had been any previous domestic-related calls to the home, Bernhardt said."
