Media summary: Deputies responded for a domestic violence call shortly before midnight. Upon arrival, they spoke to a 16-year-old boy who said his mother and stepfather were talking in the living room and that his mother's face was bloody. When deputies arrived and moved toward the living room, they observed a man sitting on a sofa with a woman, and she immediately called out to the deputies. The man then pulled out a handgun and lifted it, and deputies fled. A shot was fired followed by a second shot a few seconds later. Deputies then entered the living room, where it appeared that Lester Reed, 41, had shot Shameka Lashon Dantzler, 36, and then himself.
