PORT ORANGE, Fla. -- A Volusia County sheriff's deputy and his girlfriend died in an apparent murder-suicide on Monday morning.
The Port Orange Police Department said it was responding to a report of a verbal disturbance at about 5:40 a.m. when officers discovered the bodies of Ronald Edmour Vachon, 24, and Kendra Leigh Early, 24, in an apartment on Floral Springs Boulevard.
The bodies were found in Vachon's apartment at the Legacy at Crystal Lake apartments, WESH 2 News reported.
