TYLER (AP/Staff) — Tyler police say a second woman has died in a double shooting in Tyler. On Tuesday, gunfire blamed on a tenant killed a landlord at a residence, and the renter died later from a self-inflicted gunshot wound. Officer Don Martin says the suspect, Alice Aguilar, 47 (pictured), died Wednesday at East Texas Medical Center in Tyler. Police on Tuesday afternoon received a call of shots fired at a multi-apartment residence and discovered the body of Socorro Nunez, 70, in one unit. Martin says Aguilar was found unconscious, with an apparent self-inflicted gunshot wound, in another unit. Police are investigating what led to the shootings and whether financial problems were involved.
