Officers responded to the 7700 block of Drew Circle around 9 p.m. Saturday after hearing reports of shots fired. They found a male and a female dead from gunshot wounds, according to police.

Officials said this was not a random incident and the two people, whose ages haven't been released, had previously been in a relationship.
