NEW YORK (1010 WINS) — A Port Authority police officer shot two people—killing one and critically injuring another—before fatally shooting himself in a murder-suicide in the Bronx on Thursday morning, sources said.
Just before 8 a.m., officers responded to an apartment building on Johnson Avenue in Spuyten Duyvil, where they discovered a 55-year-old man and a 59-year-old woman who had both sustained fatal gunshot wounds to the head.
Both victims were pronounced dead at the scene. Emergency responders also located an 86-year-old woman with a gunshot wound to the face. She was rushed to Harlem Hospital, where she remains in critical but stable condition.
The shooting appears to be a murder-suicide. Sources told 1010 WINS that the 55-year-old man was a Port Authority police officer who shot the other two.
The investigation remains ongoing. The relationship between the three of them wasn't immediately known.
