A double homicide in Ferguson has left the community stunned after police confirmed the identity of one of the victims.
Ferguson Police Chief Troy Doyle stated that the male victim was Henry Williams, who previously served as the Berkeley Fire Chief. Officers responded around 6 p.m. to the 500 block of North Clay Avenue after receiving a call.
When officers arrived, they found a man and a woman suffering from gunshot wounds. Despite efforts from officers and first responders, both victims were pronounced dead at the scene.
Police are still working to identify the female victim. The investigation remains ongoing.
