The Town of Hamburg Police Department is investigating what’s being described as a murder-suicide on Loring Avenue.

Police received a call around 3:45 a.m. from a man who identified himself as "Kevin." The man said he shot his girlfriend and intended to shoot himself.

When they arrived at the house, they heard a gunshot.

When officers entered the house, they found a woman, identified as Danielle Morse, 25, lying on the floor. She was pronounced dead.

Officers also found a man, identified as Kevin Kopper, 31, in a bedroom with a self-inflicted gunshot wound.

Neighbors told Hamburg Police the couple had only lived in the house for three months.

“Just yesterday these people were here,” said neighbor Leroy Osborn. “I didn’t know them very well. Young man and women whose life is snuffed out suddenly, and I would just pray that somehow Jesus Christ may be known and that they may be comforted.”

Police are asking anyone with information to contact Lt. Nick Ugale at the Town of Hamburg Police by calling 716-648-5111.
