Police officials reported that a 60-year-old man named Robbert was arrested and charged with serious crimes including first-degree murder and assault.
This followed the deaths of his 53-year-old wife, Marcla, and her 77-year-old mother, Tea, who were found with gunshot wounds. Tea died at the scene, while Marcla was conscious when discovered.
According to police, Marcla told officers that her husband had shot both her and her mother. It was revealed during the investigation that Marcla had recently filed for divorce from Robbert. The tragic incident occurred at Marcla’s apartment.
Marcla had moved in with her mother after filing for divorce. A witness called 911 after hearing loud noises upstairs. The witness encountered Robbert, who allegedly threatened them before entering the apartment wearing black clothes and gloves. The witness managed to escape downstairs to call for help.
When police arrived, they found the apartment door open and discovered both victims with gunshot wounds. Marcla, despite being rushed to the hospital, later passed away. Robbert was swiftly apprehended by officers. He claimed that he had taken prescribed sleep medication, affecting his actions.
