MESA -- Mesa police are investigating an apparent murder-suicide that left a mother and her two teenage sons dead.
Police spokesman Detective Steve Berry said the woman's husband came home from work late Saturday and found her dead. As he continued checking the home, the man found his two sons dead.
Berry said they all suffered gunshot wounds.
The names of the mother and the teens were not immediately released.
Investigators said they suspect that the mother shot the two teens and then turned the gun on herself.
Berry said the husband and wife had been having marital problems, but he declined to provide any other details about the case, including where the bodies were found inside the home or how many times each were shot.
This happened in our old neighborhood. I am pretty sure I will never understand how a mother could take her own childs life.....
