East Ridge Police responded to an early afternoon shooting on Monday, according to East Ridge spokesman Robert Wade.

When police arrived at 5425 Marion Avenue, they found one person dead and another in critical condition.

“After a preliminary death investigation, it appears to be an attempted murder-suicide,” Wade said.

The injured person was transported to Erlanger hospital for treatment, but Wade did not know the individual’s condition as of 5 p.m. on Monday.

The names of the two involved have not yet been released.
