Passerby Witnesses Shooting Death Of Teens
"PHOENIX, AZ — Phoenix police say a teenage boy shot and killed his ex-girlfriend before taking his own life Friday.
"The victim has been identified as 16-year-old Anastasia `Ana` Greer and the gunman as 15-year-old Matthew Bolton.
"Police responded to a home on West Villa Linda Dr., just west of 40th Dr., around noon Friday after receiving reports of gunshots.
"`When they arrived on scene they discovered the body of a male and female who were deceased from apparent gunshot wounds,` Phoenix police spokesman Tommy Thompson said.
"A man who ended up witnessing the murder/suicide, as he drove by the house it happened in front of, said he initially thought the situation was a joke.
"`I heard a scream and I saw a young girl running from a young man, him chasing her, and I thought simply two kids playing,` said Henry Gano.
"Gano said he quickly realized it was no game when he heard gunshots.
"`Then I noticed the gun in his hand,` said Gano. `And, he was both hands firing at her.`"
