PUEBLO, Colo. (KOAA) — Officers with the Pueblo Police Department (PPD) were sent to a residence in the 3300 block of Alturas Drive around 9:15 a.m. Wednesday.
When they arrived, they found a woman who was dead and a man suffering from a gunshot wound. He was transported to a local hospital, where he died from his injuries.
This situation is being investigated as a murder-suicide. This marks the city's sixth homicide this year; at this time last year, there were only four.
The Pueblo County Coroner's Office will release their identities at a later time.
