A California man accused of skewering his girlfriend and her uncle with a medieval spear before shooting them to death at a storage facility was found by police with a self-inflicted gunshot wound.
On Thursday, a woman called police to report her boyfriend stabbed her and her uncle in a Santa Ana, California, storage unit, according to police.
When officers arrived, the victims – later identified as 25-year-old Jordan Block and 64-year-old Brian Xan Martin – were found with fatal gunshot wounds to the torso, in addition to the stabbing injuries, police said.
Their killer, 25-year-old Cameron Delani Clark, shot himself and died at the hospital days later.
Investigators discovered a gun and a medieval-style spear at the crime scene, both of which are believed to have been used in the double slaying.
An unidentified witness said Martin claimed to be an expert in medieval swords and kept them at the storage unit.
"Just a nice little dude. He's been here a long time," the witness told KTLA-TV. He had a bad back and every time I saw him, he was just nice. I'd talk with him for a couple of minutes, same with his niece."
A motive in the murder-suicide remains under investigation.
