Authorities said Monday that two people found shot to death in an Encino home died in a murder-suicide.

Pedro Papias, 41, shot and killed his wife, Rosa Valencia, 35, after noon Sunday, then turned the gun on himself, police said. The couple’s three children were in the home in the 4800 block of Haskell Avenue at the time. They ran from the house and called 911 with a cordless phone, police said.
