They tell us that they were called here to Elm Street West just afternoon. When they got to the house, they found two children there unharmed.

Now, the thirty seven year old Marie Hunt had a gunshot wound to the abdomen. Thirty five year old Mark Hinshaw had a gunshot wound

to the head. Police haven't told us the relationship between the two victims, and we don't really know what's led up to this, only police telling us that there didn't appear to be any forced entry into that home.

Police are continuing to investigate, but say there is no threat to the public. Ukrainian President Vladimir Zelenski, responding to word of next week's meeting in Alaska between President Trump and Russian President Vladimir Putin. Zelensky warning against making decisions without Ukraine also at the negotiating table during their upcoming meeting.

CBS News reporter Christopher Cruz on social media, Zelenski said, if Trump and Putin make a deal without Ukraine having a voice in the agreement, it will not bring peace. It will achieve nothing, he wrote, and he ruled out ceding territory to Russia. He said Ukraine's territorial integrity, enshrined in the constitution, is non negotiable. Ukraine, he wrote, will not give Russia any awards for what it has done.

Ukrainians will not give their land to the occupier. Trump telling reporters yesterday a peace deal could require Ukraine giving up some territory in eastern Ukraine. More gun violence in America.
