Shreveport police responded to the 8900 block of Brandon Drive in Shreveport after receiving a welfare call. Police say a relative of the victim called concerned that their family member did not show up to work. When police arrived at the victim's home three bodies were found inside.

Investigators believe 36-year-old Billy Hardy shot and killed his wife, 33-year-old Jolyne Hardy and their 3-year-old son before turning the gun on himself.

Billy Hardy's bestfriend says he doesn't believe Hardy pulled the trigger, stating he loved his family too much.

Other neighbors tell KTAL they wished the gunman, whomever it was, would have sought help before making such a tragic decision.

The couple both worked for the Willis Knighton system. KTAL was told they had been married for five years.
