Murder/Suicide at St. Joseph's This Morning

Investigators say a 71-year-old Lawrenceville man visiting his wife at St. Joseph's Hospital shot and killed her early Monday morning, then turned the gun on himself.

Beverly Shields, 70, and Donald Shields died in the incident at the hospital on Peachtree Dunwoody Road, Fulton County police said.

Efforts were made to resuscitate both victims, hospital spokesman Joseph Robb said.

The shooting occurred in the patient's room and no one else was threatened, Robb said.

Operations and security were normal by mid-morning, Robb said.

Police said Beverly Shields was in the intensive care unit.

Police spokesman Gary Syblis said she had been in the hospital for several weeks and that her recovery was not going well.

The couple's relatives asked that no further information be released by the hospital, Robb said.
