Update: Evansville Police Say 3 People Are Dead Following A Sunday crime Spree.
The first incident occurred in the 300 block of Linwood where police were called to a report of a woman being shot. She later died from her injuries. Shortly after that they were called to the intersection of Morgan and Highway 41 where another person was shot and killed. Police believed the two incidents were related.

 

They began looking for a man in a dark SUV with Florida plates. Shortly after that they received word the vehicle was at the Vanderburgh 4-H Center. When police got there they say they found the suspect dead in the car. No names are being released at this point.

Police have not released a motive for the crimes press, but neighbors tell 44News it was a domestic violence situation. They say the suspect and the person shot on Linwood were going through a divorce.

Original story:

What started as a search for a shooting suspect has ended with the suspect dead.
Just before 11:00 Sunday morning the Evansville Police Department was looking for a suspect in connection with two overnight shootings. The man was said to be driving a black SUV with Florida plates. He was also considered to be armed and dangerous.

About an hour later law enforcement officers were sent to the Vanderburgh 4-H Center, where someone spotted a vehicle and a person matching that description. Police are saying the suspect has been found, and that the suspect is dead. Police are also searching a home on Pennsylvania apparently related to the incident. Few other details are being released at this time.

44News has a crew on the scene. We will update this story as details become available.
