A man and a woman were shot dead Saturday morning in the Key Peninsula in a dispute over "guns and/or drugs," said Pierce County Sheriff's Department spokesperson Ed Troyer.

Deputies responded just before 3 a.m. to a 911 call about shots fired.

Deputies found the bodies of 35-year-old man and a 24-year-old woman at the scene on 5500 block of Whiteman Road. Multiple weapons were also recovered.

Deputies also found a 2-year-old boy in a vehicle the victims drove to the scene. He was uninjured and is with relatives, said Troyer.

Troyer said a 27-year-old suspect in the shooting was well known to police, and deputies were not currently looking for any additional suspects.
