Details were still sketchy but police suspect that 52-year-old Robert Salazar killed Amy Kaye Romero, 47, and her 6-year-old grandson Emilio Tapia, then turned the gun on himself Friday morning in Bernalillo, the Albuquerque Journal reported Sunday.

All three were killed by single gunshots to the head, and a handgun was found near Salazar's body, Bernalillo Police Lt. Chris Stoyell told the Journal.

Louella Romero, Amy Kaye Romero's daughter, said she thinks Salazar may have become unstable after her mother told him to leave the house, the Journal reported.

"He's always told her that if she ever leaves him, he's going to kill himself," Louella Romero said. "But I just don't understand how you could love someone so much that you just take their life."

3:20pm 4/25/08 UPDATE: Police say the man and woman are boyfriend and girlfriend and that the boy is the grandson of the woman.

One of the victims was a 52-year-old man, another a 47-year-old woman and the third, a 6-year-old boy, Martinez tells us.
