BRANDON, Fla. — Two adults are dead after a shooting inside a residence in Brandon.

The Hillsborough County Sheriff’s Office (HCSO) said deputies responded to Burlwood Street around 5:40 p.m. on Thursday for reports of gunfire. A woman was pronounced dead at the scene, and a man was taken to Tampa General Hospital, where he later died.

On Saturday, HCSO identified the victim found dead at the scene as 52-year-old Katherine Luz Evans. The man, who is considered the suspect, was identified as 62-year-old Anthony David Evans, according to a news release.

At this time, HCSO said the investigation is ongoing, and they cannot release more information on the manner of death until the Medical Examiner's Office finalizes its report.
