Background:

At approximately 11:30 p.m. on Saturday, April 25, 2015, Deputies responded to McLemore Court just east of Palm Springs Drive on a report of a disturbance with shots fired in the area.

When Deputies arrived, they found two deceased male adults outside a residence on McLemore Court. A third person had been injured and was transported to a local hospital for treatment.

According to Sheriff’s Office Detectives, the preliminary investigation indicates that the residents of the home at McLemore heard a disturbance outside their home shortly before 11:30 p.m.

Residents of the home, including a male in his late fifties and his elderly father, went out to the front yard to check on the disturbance. The homeowners were confronted by two male adults, both unknown to them.

The residents sustained injuries as the confrontation escalated. During this time, the son shot at the two subjects, resulting in their deaths.

The father was transported to a local hospital with what are believed to be non-life threatening injuries.

Consistent with homicide investigation protocols, the District Attorney’s Office responded to the scene and the completed investigation will be submitted to their office.

At this time, no arrests have been made.
