PHOENIX - Phoenix police have identified a man and a woman dead in what investigators believe was a murder suicide.

Sgt. Maggie Cox says investigators believe 41-year-old Joseph Caba shot his fiancee, 32-year-old Lauren Porter, and then himself.

They were found dead in a home in northwest Phoenix late Wednesday afternoon after family members asked authorities to do a welfare check. Cox said the police investigation is ongoing.
