TAMPA, Fla. — Deputies have identified two victims of what they believe to was a murder-suicide in Tampa.

The Hillsborough County Sheriff's Office said they received a call around 6:37 p.m. on Aug. 14 about two people who were possibly dead in a parking lot of HCA Florida West Tampa Hospital on Webb Road.

When deputies arrived, they said they found a woman who had been shot multiple times and a man who appeared to have shot himself. The victims were later identified as Zelica Martucci, 67, and Philip Martucci, 75.

HCSO said they believe this was an isolated incident and there is no threat to the public. This is still an ongoing investigation.
