STAFFORD COUNTY, Va. — Stafford County investigators are calling a Friday night shooting a murder-suicide.

Deputies found the bodies of 32-year-old Ashley Hoffman and 34-year-old Ramon Williams inside a home in the 300 block of Garrison Woods Drive.

According to officials, a juvenile inside the home ran to a nearby relative’s home after hearing gunfire at the house just before 11:40 p.m.

“When deputies arrived on scene they found a male and female deceased from gunshot wounds,” Stafford County Sheriff’s Office spokesman Bill Kennedy said. “The two decedents were boyfriend/girlfriend and lived at the residence.”

Medics transported the bodies to the Medical Examiner’s Officer in Richmond where the exact causes of death will be determined.

The Stafford County Sheriff’s Office says the investigation is ongoing.
