From same link:
"Authorities said the suspect in the shooting is being treated for a self-inflicted gunshot wound at a different location. McKinney police said the shooting was a domestic incident."

I had just picked my daughter up from Discovery before this happened. The estranged father shot the mother in front of the children while she and the kids were in the vehicle. He then left and shot/killed himself.

That's a fact. Very sad incident for the kids but they may be better off without an insane father raising them.

Estranged husband shot wife, then shot himself. Husband also deceased now.

That's horrible!

So glad you were gone before it happened! Have you considered what you think you would have done, if anything? I know you have your own child to consider. Just curious what your thoughts are since it was so close to home for you.
If you carry a gun, people call you paranoid. Nonsense! If you carry a gun, what do you have to be paranoid about?
