CAPE CORAL, Fla. -- Neighbors are leaving flowers in front of a Cape Coral home after a longtime marriage came to a violent end, when Jason McGuire shot and killed his wife before killing himself, Saturday. One neighbor, who knew the couple, says he didn't see it coming.

“I thought the two of them were a pretty good couple together," said Richard Strahman, who lives a couple doors down from the McGuires.“I never knew anything about any abuse, I didn’t even fathom that.”

Cape Coral Police Department confirm that McGuire was arrested for aggravated assault against his wife just eight days before her death.

This is an ongoing investigation.
