Elgin police investigating suspected murder-suicide
A man and a woman are dead in what Elgin police suspect is a murder-suicide.
Police report they were called at 4:53 a.m. to a home on Bluff City Boulevard by a woman who reported finding two bodies inside.
It appears the man shot the woman, then shot himself, and that it was a "domestic-related situation," according to a police news release.
Police did not say who the people were, but the Cook County medical examiner's office on Thursday night identified the woman as 35-year-old Michelle Allen of Elgin.
The Cook County medical examiner's office will conduct autopsies.
