A 75-year-old visitor is believed to have fatally shot his 73-year-old wife before killing himself at an Ohio nursing home, after bringing in a concealed handgun, authorities said. The apparent murder-suicide happened shortly before 11.30am on Thursday at The Meadows at Osborn Park in Erie County.

The man was visiting his wife, who was a resident at the facility, according to the Erie County Sheriff's Office. Authorities said the husband had a concealed handgun, and staff later reported hearing two gunshots from the woman's room.
