Police say a woman and a man are dead in what they believe to be a murder-suicide in Uniondale.
Sources tell News 12 that a 911 call was made at around 8 a.m. Wednesday.
First Precinct officers responded to a call of shots fired on Laclede Avenue where they discovered a 28-year-old female in the street in front of a home. She was pronounced dead at the scene.
Police believe a 31-year-old man shot her and then drove to Greenfield Cemetery and shot himself.
"It appears that he had committed suicide and was discovered by the workers at the cemetery this morning," says Nassau Police Commissioner Patrick Ryder. "So we had a domestic suicide, a homicide suicide, and that's where we're at."
The names of the man and woman have not yet been released.
