COOLIDGE, Ariz. (AP) - Police in south-central Arizona say two men and a woman found fatally shot on a rural highway were related.
 
Coolidge police identified the woman killed Wednesday on State Route 87 as 45-year-old Reyna Idalia Renteria. The men were identified as 75-year-old Francisco Renteria Valenzuela and 57-year-old Everardo Verduzco.
 
Police said Renteria was the wife of Verduzco and the daughter of Valenzuela.
 
Police said a motive wasn't immediately known but that the shootings didn't appear to be either drug-related or a property crime. They also said they weren't looking for any suspects.
 
Coolidge is about 56 miles southeast of Phoenix.
