LAS VEGAS (AP) — Police say a woman shot and killed a man she had been dating before shooting and killing herself in a Las Vegas garage.

The bodies were discovered late Thursday afternoon in a home in the southwest part of the Las Vegas valley.

The Clark County coroner's office told the Las Vegas Review-Journal that the man killed was 26-year-old Won Jae Lee.

The identity of the woman was not released.

Police say evidence suggests a fight took place inside before the man and woman moved to the garage where the fatal shooting took place.

Concerned friends checked on the couple and later called police.
