Wisconsin Murder-Suicide: Man Shoots Wife Multiple Times Before Killing Self

In an apparent case of murder-suicide, a man shot his wife multiple times before turning the gun on himself in Wisconsin. The Kewaunee County Sheriff's Department reported that 71-year-old Dennis A. McMillan shot Laura M. McMillan, 56.

The victims were found in their Ahnapee home Friday night, authorities said, adding that they received a call to check the home. The person who called police said that it has been few days since they heard from an acquaintance who lives at the home.

When authorities arrived at the scene, they looked through the window and saw the bodies of two people on the floor. They entered the home and began an investigation.

Dennis and Laura McMillan were the owners and occupants of the home, police said, adding that no other people lived there at the time.

The Wisconsin Division of Criminal Investigation is also assisting in the case to get more details about the incident.

In another incident, a woman was shot by her ex-boyfriend at her home in Baltimore, Maryland. The incident took place in the 7200 block of Chippenham Place.

Baltimore County Police detectives said they arrived at a scene after receiving a report of gunfire at a Milford Mill apartment building Friday morning. When authorities arrived, they found Marlen Xioma Maldonado-Caceres, 30, laying on the ground shot. She later died at an area hospital.

Detectives determined that Maldonado-Caceres was shot by her ex-boyfriend, who was found a short distance away sitting in a vehicle, suffering from an apparent self-inflicted gunshot wound.

In a murder-suicide case in New York last month, a 63-year-old man killed his wife in northern Westchester County. Troopers were sent to a residence for an alarm activation on Titicus Road in North Salem. When authorities arrived at the scene they found the bodies of two people. The two people dead were identified as Barry Naderman, 63, and Peggy Naderman, 64.

Police said that Barry shot his wife with a .22 caliber rifle before turning it on him.

An initial investigation conducted by the Westchester County Medical Examiner's Office revealed the deaths were a result of a murder-suicide, police said, adding that it was not immediately clear what the motivation might have been.
