Westminster, Md. (DG) – A Sunday morning shooting in Westminster is now being investigated as a domestic violence-related murder-suicide.
Police say they were dispatched around 8:30 a.m. to a residence on East Main Street after receiving a call that an adult family member had shot another and left with a weapon. Responding officers, assisted by the Carroll County Sheriff’s Office, secured the area and closed part of the road while they worked to confirm details with the caller.
Attempts to contact those inside the home were unsuccessful. Just before 10 a.m., the Carroll County Sheriff’s Office Crisis Response Team entered the residence and discovered two deceased individuals.
Authorities say the case remains under active investigation.
