Two Dead After Murder-Suicide: Police

Investigators say a man fatally shot his wife then killed himself while dropping off his children at a Dallas residence. No youngsters were hurt in the attack Sunday night.

Officers found a man and a woman dead in the yard of a home on the 6900 block of Maryibel Circle at about 6:45 p.m.

Police say officers responded to reports of gunfire at a home where the woman has relatives. Witnesses say the man and the woman got into an argument before he shot her and then turned the gun on himself. Both were dead at the scene.

The Dallas County Medical Examiner identified the woman as 25-year-old Tonina Serrato-Lopez.

Police are trying to determine what sparked the argument. Further details were not immediately available Monday.
