HOUSTON authorities are investigating a possible murder-suicide in Kashmere Gardens area.
Stonix News gathered that officers from Houston Police Department were called to Coal and Linn streets, where they found the bodies of a man and woman inside an apartment.
It’s unclear how the woman died, but police say her body was covered with sheets and may have been there for some time.
Our source, ABC13 reported that the woman’s family initially alerted police after not hearing from her since Sunday.
“When (officers) got here, they found the female’s vehicle in the driveway. No one was answering the door.
“They broke some glass and were able to get in, and when they got in, they found a horrible sight,” Lt. R. Willkens with HPD said.
Officers believe the man, who reportedly had pillows over his head, died by suicide.
“What we believe occurred right now – because they’ve had a violent past, family members are telling us, we haven’t checked it yet – is that the male has assaulted her in the past. And maybe has even been to jail on that. We’re working to find out if that’s true,” Willkens said.
Willkens also said the man and woman both lived in the apartment and were 35 years old.
