Memphis Police have identified the two people killed in a domestic shooting incident early Tuesday morning.
Killed were Kimberly Maxwell, 39, and Emmet Townsend Jr., 46. Deric Hoffman, 22, remains in critical condition.
The incident began about 1 a.m. at the Lynnfield Square apartments at 1429 Sycamore Bend.
Police got two calls, one about a prowler and the second from an 11-year-old boy.
When they arrived, a wounded Hoffman ran from the apartment. The boy wasn't hurt.
After police entered, they found Maxwell, who died at the scene, police said. Townsend died later at the Regional Medical Center at Memphis.
Police are still investigating the incident and are awaiting a report from the medical examiner.
