Two people were dead in the front yard of a home in Catoosa County on Tuesday afternoon following an apparent murder-suicide.
The victims were a man and a woman.
It happened at a home on Clara Lee Road, near Cloud Springs Road.
Sheriff Gary Sisk said deputies responded to a call of a domestic disturbance at the address. He said the officers heard shots fired as they drove up.
The deputies retreated. When they returned to the scene, they located the two bodies.
The man was apparently the one with the gun, the sheriff said.
