FORT WORTH — Police have arrested a middle school teacher after two people were found dead on a driveway Sunday morning.

According to a Fort Worth Police Department news release, Cary Joseph Heath, 35, was arrested at W.S. Permenter Middle School in Cedar Hill without incident Monday.

He was being held at the Fort Worth jail with a $1 million bond.

According to the Fort Worth Star-Telegram, a woman called 911 Sunday around 4 a.m., reporting that multiple shots had been fired in the 800 block of Buffalo Springs Drive in south Fort Worth and that she knew at least one of the victims.

When officers arrived, they found two people dead on the driveway, the paper reported.

KXAS-TV reported that Jordan Milner, who lives across the street from the crime scene, said a neighbor shot his next-door neighbors.

"My wife woke me up and said someone is banging on the door," Milner told the TV station. "Turns out what my wife heard were gunshots. From my understanding, the guy had an assault rife. From the looks of it, due to the shell casings, he unloaded the whole clip and killed two of the people who lived next door."

No identities of the victims had been released by the Tarrant County medical examiner’s office as of Monday night.

According to the school's website, Heath is an eighth-grade science teacher in his first year at the middle school. Before teaching at Permenter, he served 13 years in the Air Force.

"I am excited to be here at Permenter to provide structure and discipline for your student," Heath wrote in his teacher profile.

Cedar Hill Independent School District said Monday night Heath has been placed on administrative leave.
