Two family members are dead and a third is hospitalized after someone entered their Southwest Arlington home and opened fire just after midnight Monday.
According to Arlington police, officers were called to a shooting at a home on the 5300 block of Ivy Hill Drive and arrived to find three victims including a 41-year-old man, a 67-year-old woman and an 84-year-old man.
Police said the 84-year-old man died at the scene and that the other two victims were hospitalized for treatment of multiple gunshot wounds. The 41-year-old man later died at the hospital while the woman is expected to survive.
