Police released the identities yesterday of bodies found Thursday in a West Baltimore apartment. Police ruled the deaths a murder and suicide.
Homicide detectives do not know the motive, said Officer Troy Harris, a police spokesman.
Southwestern District officers responding to a report of a disturbance at a Ten Hills Apartments unit in the 200 block of Atholgate Lane found the bodies of Latasha Harris, 30, and Jerry Bennett, 37, in a bedroom about 6 p.m., Harris said. He identified them as boyfriend and girlfriend.
