Kimberly Robbins, 47, a white woman, was killed by multiple gunshot wounds to the back and neck in the 4300 block of Don Felipe Drive in Baldwin Hills. Her time of death was listed as 5:40 p.m. Friday, March 9.

Police called the case a murder-suicide. The victim’s mother, who lives in the back house of a two-house property, called police about 4:45 p.m. to say that she thought her son-in-law had shot her daughter in the front house, police said. Officers from LAPD’s Southwest Division responded and saw a woman lying on the floor inside the house. They carried out a rescue operation to bring her outside, but they found she was already dead. Her husband, Michael Robbins, 67, a black man, was later found dead at the scene. Detectives believe he shot his wife, who police identified as Kim Gehring, then turned the gun on himself.
