A Detroit cop was found murdered in her Redford Township home Thursday in what appears to be a murder-suicide involving her husband.
Redford Township Police told Deadline Detroit that police were dispatched to the 9900 block of Kinloch Street around 11:40 a.m. where they found two bodies.
Police declined to release the names of the people.
But WDIV reported that family members at the scene identified the officer as Anna Hamilton, mother of three adult children, who was married for three years to Damon Barton. Hamilton worked the night shift.
Family members told WDIV that they believe Barton killed Hamilton before killing himself.
Detroit Police Chief James Craig said, according to WDIV:
"It appears that a Detroit police officer was murdered. Domestic situation it appears now. Being investigated by the state police and Redford Township. This has touched many, many in our DPD family."
