A Texas man fatally shot his wife while their three children watched Thursday morning and then shot himself in an apparent suicide attempt, police said.
Daryl Stegall, 32, began pounding on the Lewisville apartment door of Kishana Jeffers, 30, around 11 a.m., the Dallas Morning News reported.
Stegall, who does not live in the apartment, kicked in the door when he wasn’t let in and allegedly shot Jeffers before walking to a breezeway and shooting himself, said Lewisville police Capt. Dan Rochelle.
