On Thursday in Santa Ana, a murder-suicide attempt occurred that resulted in the deaths of two individuals. The victims have been identified as Jordan Block, 25, and Brian Martin, 64. It has been reported that the niece and uncle were shot and killed by the woman’s boyfriend.
According to authorities, Block visited her uncle Martin at a unit within a business complex when her boyfriend also arrived. The niece called 911 to report that her boyfriend had stabbed her and her uncle. However, when police arrived, the victims were already deceased.
The woman who rents a unit inside the business complex described Martin as cordial to all tenants. In addition to being friendly, he taught women’s self-defense classes and was known for his conscientious nature. He had a large collection of ancient swords, one of which was found bloodied outside the garage.
Inside the unit, officers found Jordan’s boyfriend with a self-inflicted gunshot wound. He was in critical condition as of Friday afternoon. The motive for the attack is still under investigation.
