FORT MYERS, Fla. A jealous man killed his girlfriend and himself Monday night after finding her at a drug store with another man, Lee County Sheriff Mike Scott said.

He tried to kill the other man as well, but missed, Scott said.

Deputies responded at around 10:45 p.m. to a CVS Pharmacy at 14411 Palm Beach Blvd. after receiving a call that shots were fired, the sheriff’s office said.

The scene was contained with no threat to the surrounding community, deputies said.

Scott declined to identify the victims, pending next-of-kin notification.

No further information was immediately available.
