Good Samaritans in Tennessee jumped into action and detained a man suspected of fatally shooting two women during an argument in a front yard on Monday until police arrived, authorities said.
Officers responded to a call of shots fired around 3:30 p.m. in the 100 block of Cavalier Drive in Hendersonville, the Hendersonville Police Department said.
Responding officers found two women, identified as 60-year-old Laura Undis and 67-year-old Virginia Deirdre Sheen, with gunshot wounds in the front yard of the residence. Police said the suspect, 72-year-old Lloyd T. Martin Jr., was already detained by the good Samaritans when officers arrived.
Officials said a preliminary investigation revealed Martin had been in a failed relationship with Undis.
