A man shot and killed a woman in Metairie and then took his own life, the Jefferson Parish Sheriff's Office announced today.
"At around 11:00 am this morning, deputies were dispatched to the 3000 block of Beaulieu St. in reference to a disposition check," said Capt. Jason Rivarde, a spokesman for the sheriff's office. "Upon entering the residence, they located a male and female deceased inside. It appears that the male shot and killed the female before taking his own life."
The identities of the two are being withheld until the coroner can notify next of kin.
