STERLING HEIGHTS, Mich. – Police said Tuesday that a man was found dead from a self-inflicted gunshot wound in the same home where a woman was found dead on Monday.

A neighbor had found the woman about 5 p.m. Monday lying by the door of the home in the 14000 block of Shadywood Drive, near Metro Parkway and Schoenherr Road. After further investigation, police confirmed a man was found dead in the home, too. He suffered an apparent self-inflicted gunshot wound.

The victims were a married couple in their late 60s, police said.

“We still believe that this incident is contained to this home, and there is no danger to the public," reads a statement from Sterling Heights police. "We will not be identifying the victims at this time due to official notifications of next of kin, along with the further investigation by the medical examiner’s office.”

Police are reviewing surveillance cameras from homes as they try to piece together what happened.

No arrests have been announced.
