According to police, a mother shot and killed her teenage son Thursday morning before pulling the trigger on herself.

The murder-suicide occurred on Bay Crest Court near Loganville, according to Gwinnett County Police.

According to authorities, the mother gunned down her son and then committed suicide. The son was rushed to the hospital, where he died a short time later.
