The Jefferson County coroner released the names of a man and woman killed in what police are calling an apparent murder-suicide in the Okolona neighborhood.
On Monday, officers were called to the 7300 block of Monsey Circle for a welfare check. Callers reported a foul odor coming from the apartment.
LMPD spokesman Aaron Ellis said a man and woman were found dead inside with gunshot wounds.
Investigators believe the man shot the woman and then himself.
The woman was identified as 42-year-old Temika Hunt. The man was identified as 55-year-old John Whiteside Jr.
LMPD’s Homicide Unit is investigating and is not yet clear when the shooting took place.
