Carabinieri paramilitary police on Monday discovered the bodies of a 56-year-old hairdresser and her security-guard boyfriend, 57, in an apartment in the village of Savio di Cervia, near the northeastern city of Ravenna.
A total of five shots were fired in what investigators say may have been a murder-suicide carried out by the boyfriend.
The shooter also fired on the couple's dog, a brown mixed breed who is at the vet's in critical condition, police said.
