OTTAWA COUNTY, MI — Deputies are investigating what they believe may have been a murder-suicide.
A 22-year-old woman and 23-year-old man were found dead in their apartment, located in the 2900 block of Millpond Drive in Holland Township, shortly before 10:45 a.m. Sunday, Jan. 10.
A family member of the woman had gone to the apartment to check on her when they found the man and woman unresponsive and contacted Ottawa County Central Dispatch, a news release from the sheriff’s office states.
Deputies and paramedics responded to the scene and found the two individuals deceased. The two were involved in a domestic relationship, deputies said.
A firearm was recovered at the scene and the preliminary investigation revealed that both individuals had appeared to have suffered from gunshot wounds.
There is not thought to be a concern for general public safety at this time.
A forensic autopsy will be performed later this week on both victims. Identities of the deceased parties are not being released at this time.
