According to Anne Arundel County Police Department, a man shot another male as well as a female and then turned the gun on himself.

The alleged assailant and the woman were killed in the lot, but the male shooting victim was able to drive to a nearby tackle shop and call police.

He was transported to an area hospital, where he was later pronounced dead.

The investigation into the suspected double murder-suicide is ongoing.

“There's going to be a lot of questions about relationships and things like that that we do not have the answer to,” police spokesperson Jacklyn Davis said.
