An attempted suicide gone awry left police with an active scene: a man suffering from a gunshot wound and his wife injured by a bullet.

A man shot himself in the head just before 12:30 p.m. Monday, July 25, at a home near the intersection of West Broadway Avenue and 8th Street, according to Muskegon Heights Police Chief Joseph Thomas.

The man's wife was standing next to him, and she was injured by a bullet fragment to her chest when the gun was shot.

The man still has a pulse and was taken to an area hospital for treatment, Thomas said. His wife's condition is not yet known.

Police since have left the scene. The victims nor additional information as to what led up to the shooting have not been released.
