Police Investigating Apparent Murder-Suicide In Creve Coeur

CREVE COEUR, MO — Detectives are investigating an apparent murder-suicide at a home in Creve Coeur Sunday morning. St. Louis County Police say they found the bodies of a man and a woman after being called to the house to check on the well-being of one of the people who lived there.

While looking through the windows, officers said they saw a man walking in the back of the home. Before they could get his attention, they heard gunshots and retreated until a tactical unit could arrive.

When police eventually entered the home, they found two bodies. Names and additional details have not been released.
