Fox News and The Associated Press report a husband and wife were found shot to death in their Connecticut home early Sunday morning. Police received a 911 call from a woman in the home involved in a domestic disturbance just before midnight Sunday. When police arrived on scene, they heard multiple gun shots and forced their way into the house. 43-year-old Alice Morrin and her 45-year-old husband James Morrin were found dead inside. Two children in the home were found safe. Autopsies have been planned for the couple.
The lead for this story was short, but used good description to set the scene for the whole story. Stating the call was "frantic" gives the reader the idea of urgency and severity. The rest of the story seems to be written in the inverted pyramid form. For short crime stories, I think this method works best as it's an easy way to organize points and give readers the information they want right away.
