Police: NW Indiana Woman Shot Parents Before Killing Herself

MICHIGAN CITY, Ind. (AP) — Police in northwestern Indiana say a woman fatally shot her parents and left their bodies in the home she shared with them before taking her own life.

Michigan City Police Sgt. Chris Yagelski said the bodies of 71-year-old Barbara Evans, 73-year-old Walter Evans and 48-year-old Tammy Evans were found in the home Monday afternoon by a relative who also lived there.

Yagelski says the bodies "had been there for some time."

A handgun and handwritten note were recovered from the home, but Yagelski declined to say what was in the note or provide a motive for the shootings.
