Police are investigating, but said they aren’t looking for any suspects, after a double homicide in Owasso’s Elm Creek neighborhood.

Officers said they were doing a welfare check late Sunday night at a home on 120th East Avenue after loved ones had not heard from the couple.

Authorities said when they went inside the home, they found the man and woman - identified as 36-year-old Matthew Clark and 29-year-old Eva Clark - dead from gunshot wounds.

Detectives spent several hours collecting evidence and processing the scene overnight.

Owasso Police said they are still investigating, "however, initial evidence suggests this incident was a murder/suicide."

Police said they're not looking for any suspects at this point.

They also said there's no threat to any neighbors, but Beverly Corey, who lives nearby, said she's baffled to hear about the shootings.

"I was kind of surprised and thought, 'Ah, no. Maybe they don't know,' and then, sure enough, I turn around the corner and here you guys are," Corey said.

Police said they will release more information as the investigation continues.
