MESA, AZ — A man and woman are dead after what is believed to be a possible murder-suicide at a Mesa home. 

Officers were called to a home near Loop 101 and Baseline Road for reports of a suicide just before 5:30 p.m. on Tuesday. 

Investigators found that 60-year-old Angela Ciura and 55-year-old Robert Braun had both suffered deadly gunshot wounds inside the home.
