Deputies were called for a “person down” about 9:40 a.m. in the 10000 block of West Wadsworth Road and found the pair in a garage of a home, according to a statement from the Lake County sheriff’s office.

Authorities found a 49-year-old woman and a 52-year-old man with gunshots, and tried live-saving measures on both, the sheriff’s office said. They were both pronounced dead at the scene.

The circumstances of the shooting remain unclear.
