CLARKSVILLE, Tenn. (WTVF) — Investigations are underway after a Tuesday morning shots-fired call turned into a murder-suicide investigation in Clarksville.
Montgomery County Sheriff's Office released a statement around 10:46 a.m. stating that deputies and investigators were on the scene in the 4200 block on Moore Hollow Road after someone reported hearing gunshots from within a home.
A short time later, MCSO sent a follow-up release, stating that the incident had become a murder-suicide investigation.
Officials have since identified the residents of the home as Charles Hill, 73, and Audrey Evans, 71.
EMS and police originally responded to the home for a welfare check after an insurance adjuster called 911, stating that he was concerned that Hill was suffering from a medical issue.
First responders heard a gunshot inside the home while they were attempting to make contact with Hill. Deputies from the MCSO entered the home and found two residents deceased from gunshot wounds.
The two have been transported to the medical examiner's office as autopsies have been requested for both individuals.
