Sheriff's Deputy and Public Information Officer Danie Huffman said deputies responded to a shots-fired call shortly before 9 p.m.

Deputies discovered a 60-year-old male and 56-year-old female, deceased on the ground near the home.

"Our hearts go out to the families and loved ones of these individuals," Huffman said. "The address shows to have a prior history which is part of the active investigation. As a matter of policy, we do not release prior histories regarding active cases."
