CHICAGO (AP) — Authorities have identified a man and a woman who were found dead overnight in a senior housing apartment complex on Chicago’s North Side by officers conducting a welfare check.
The Chicago Tribune reports the Cook County medical examiner’s office identified the two people Monday as 61-year-old Sheila Banks and 79-year-old Ocie Banks Sr. of Berwyn.
Police said officers went to the apartment Sunday night after someone requested a well-being check on a woman who lived there. Chicago police say Sheila Banks appeared to have suffered one gunshot wound to her head, while Ocie Banks Sr. had suffered “trauma to the face.”
