Winona police are investigating an apparent murder-suicide case.
Authorities say officers responded to a 911 call early Monday from a man who said he had struggled with his girlfriend over a handgun. He said the firearm went off and that she was struck in the head.
Officers arrived and tried to make contact with the man. They backed away when they heard a gunshot. Officers eventually entered the residence and found the couple dead from gunshots.
No one else was in the home.
