Ashley Hayes Reporting A Stockton couple is dead. Their three children found their bodies. The Tooele Sheriff's Department is calling it a murder-suicide.
We don't have a lot of information at this point, but officials have said a 37-year-old woman shot and killed her 58-year-old boyfriend before killing herself.
The shootings happened around 8:00 pm last night outside the couple's home on North Sherman Street in Stockton.
The woman's two teenagers and the man's 10-year-old daughter found the bodies when they came back from watching a movie at a neighbor's house.
Officials say the couple had been fighting most of the day but are still unsure why it led to violence. The couple had been dating for three-years, but were not married.
The children found the bodies next to their father's diesel truck. He was a truck driver and was working on his semi when he was murdered.
Authorities say the woman fired three shots from a handgun. They aren't sure who owned the gun or where it came from.
The couple's names have not yet been released.
