ANDOVER, Minn. -- Police have released the identities of two people found dead inside an Andover residence last week, and say that preliminary evidence shows the incident was a murder-suicide.

The Anoka County Sheriff's Office said it responded to a report of two individuals not breathing inside a residence on the 14900 block of Osage Street Northwest around 6:30 a.m. Friday.

Inside the residence, responders found a man and a woman who both appeared to have suffered from gunshot wounds. They were identified as 36-year-old Jennifer Yang, and 40-year-old Fue Her.

Investigators believe the latter shot the former before dying by suicide.

None of the other occupants in the home were injured, the sheriff's office said.
