Cobb Police said they suspect that a man killed a woman at a residence in Northeast Cobb before taking his own life there Saturday morning.
They said that officers were called to a home on Research Drive, located off Morgan Road, shortly after 10:30 a.m., on a report of “a person down,” and found two people, a man and a woman, dead at the scene.
The address was located in the Ramblewood neighborhood near Sprayberry High School.
Their names of the dead individuals have not been released, and Cobb Police have not provided further information or indicated a possible motive.
In a brief statement to East Cobb News, Cobb Police Sgt. Eric Smith said only that the “preliminary investigation indicates that this was a homicide, and the offender then committed suicide. The male was the offender, and the female was the victim. Both subjects resided at the residence.”
Police said their investigation is continuing, and that anyone with information is asked to call the Major Crimes Unit at 770) 499-3945.
