Identities of murder suicide victims in Richmond County Monday night have been released.

Richmond County deputies were called to a report of a suspicious situation in the 2900 block of Algernon Circle just after 6 pm Monday.

When they arrived, deputies found a woman had been shot in the head.  46-year-old Latoya Price was pronounced dead at her home.  She was shot at least one time in the head.

Later in the evening, a man identified as 46-year-old Tarance Revell of Augusta was reportedly being pursued by deputies on Washington Road.  Witnesses in the 3100 block of Washington Road near Allie Katz Bar and Grill reported hearing shots fired.

The Richmond County Sheriff's Office says Revell was found dead in his vehicle from a self-inflicted gunshot wound.  He was believed to have been the suspect in Price's death earlier in the evening on Algernon Circle.

Chief Deputy Coroner Kenneth Boose says both bodies are being sent to the GBI Crime Lab in Atlanta for autopsies.
