EL PASO COUNTY, Colo. (KKTV) — The El Paso County Sheriff’s Office is investigating a murder-suicide in the Gleneagle area of unincorporated El Paso County.
According to a sheriff’s office news release, deputies responded Monday morning to a suspicious incident at a home along Nichlas Court.
A welfare check was requested by a neighbor for an adult woman who had not been seen for several days in the area; the neighbor also noticed the vehicle of the woman’s estranged husband, Donald Johnson, 64, in the driveway.
Deputies were not able to get ahold of anyone during their check, so they forced entry. When they went inside, they found two people dead.
The El Paso County Coroner’s Office has identified the woman in the home as Yoon Jung Shin. Johnson was also found inside the home and had died from what appears to be a self-inflicted gunshot wound.
The incident is under investigation as a murder-suicide; the official cause and manner of death will be released by the El Paso County Coroner following an autopsy.
