North Texas Mom & Son Dead In Murder-Suicide

FLOWER MOUND (CBSDFW.COM/AP) - Investigators said that a Flower Mound woman and her son have died in an apparent murder-suicide in the home they shared.

Flower Mound police said that the 31-year-old son allegedly stabbed his 57-year-old mother, then killed himself.

The Tarrant County Medical Examiner's Office on Tuesday identified the pair as Deborah Lynn Wilner and Eric Michael Wilner. Both were dead at the scene Monday afternoon.

Flower Mound police said that the bodies were found by another person in the home -- the woman's husband and the man's father -- who apparently was asleep during the stabbings.

Authorities are seeking a motive for the deaths.
