DA: 2 Dead In Apparent Murder-Suicide In Weymouth

WEYMOUTH (AP) — The Norfolk district attorney's office says police are investigating an apparent murder-suicide of a Weymouth husband and wife.

The prosecutor's office said the bodies of 81-year-old Elizabeth Coyne and 83-year-old Donald Coyne were found at their home Tuesday morning by a family member who regularly checked on them.

The district attorney said both appeared to have gunshot wounds and a .25-caliber pistol was found at the man's side.

Police said they had no known history of domestic violence.

Autopsies are planned as part of the investigation.
