Two 911 Calls Made Before Shootings


"LAKE VILLA, IL — A Lake Villa couple was found dead in their home late Sunday afternoon following an apparent murder-suicide, officials said.

"Police found both victims dead from gunshot wounds after responding to a call about a domestic dispute in the 36000 block of Lawrence Court just after 4 p.m., Lake County Sheriff’s Chief Wayne Hunter said.

"Both police and Lake County Coroner Artis Yancey declined to identify the couple, pending notification of their families.

"The woman, 49, had been shot twice, while the man, 52, had one gunshot wound under his chin, Hunter said.

"Officials said the couple’s 21-year-old son was at home at the time of the shootings; it was unclear whether the son was injured.

"Hunter said there had been two 911 calls made during the dispute, one from the son and one from the female victim.

"The gun used was a .45-caliber handgun, Hunter said. The investigation was continuing, and it was not yet known who owned the gun, he said."
