A man shot and killed his ex-girlfriend and severely wounded another man Sunday night before he took his own life several hours later in what appears to be a murder-suicide, according to authorities.

Tyre Lewis, 24, was found dead from self-inflicted wounds near the intersection of Untreiner Avenue and Basin Street at 12:35 a.m. Monday, more than three hours after the shooting was reported, according to Escambia County Sheriff's Office spokeswoman Amber Southard.

Authorities said they would not be releasing the names of the shooting victims, but Southward said that Lewis was the ex-boyfriend of the woman who was killed.

The other man who Lewis shot was inside the woman's home at the time of the shooting, but authorities did not release information on his relationship to the woman.

Southard said the man suffered multiple gunshot wounds and was alive at a local hospital Monday afternoon.

Escambia County Sheriff’s Office deputies responded around 9:15 p.m. Sunday to a report of shots fired at the Carriage Hills Apartments complex on Michigan Avenue. Deputies discovered one deceased woman and a man severely injured with multiple gunshot wounds, Southard said.

An investigation determined Lewis had entered his ex-girlfriend's apartment and shot her and a man who had also been inside the residence.

Several hours after the shooting, deputies were notified by Lewis' family members that he was making threats to harm himself and was in the area surrounding the intersection of Untreiner Avenue and Basin Street, Southard said.

When deputies arrived at the intersection, they heard a gunshot from Lewis' car.
