Tucson police say man fatally shot stepson then himself
Police in Tucson say a man shot and killed his teenage stepson before turning the gun on himself.
Authorities identified the man and the boy late Thursday as 49-year-old Donald Stanley and 15-year-old Christian Garcia-Sanchez.
Sgt. Pete Dugan said in a news release that the man also wounded his wife. Her injuries appear to be non-life-threatening.
Police say the couple’s 10-year-old son ran from the home after the shooting Thursday and went to a neighbor for help.
A police SWAT team responded and had a robot enter the home.
The robot’s camera showed the suspect dead but his wife still alive.
The teenage boy was found dead in a back bedroom.
Dugan did not disclose a possible motive.
The boy is with extended family while his mother recovers.
