Both men were pronounced dead at the scene.

The older victim was identified as 79-year-old Charles Wagnon, a White male; the other was his 20-year-old grandson, Trevor Shepherd. Homicide detectives concluded the shooting occurred between the two family members inside the residence, and investigators said there were no outside suspects.
