Last updated on Tuesday, September 8, 2015

(COLUMBUS) - Investigators with the Columbus Police Department are investigating a double shooting incident overnight. Police now confirm those two people have died.

It happened around 10:30 p.m. Sunday at the Lincoln Village Apartments on the east side of Columbus. When officers arrived they found a man and a woman who had been shot inside an apartment.

Bartholomew County Coroner Larry Fisher says the investigation is continuing, but initial evidence indicates that the case appears to be a homicide-suicide. The names of the victims, who were in their mid- to upper 30s, are being withheld until family is notified.

Harris says two children under the age of 10 were inside the apartment at the time of the shooting. They were removed unharmed.
