Teen, ex-boyfriend found dead by authorities

BRANSON, Mo. -- A southwest Missouri teenager and her 22-year-old former boyfriend are dead in what police are calling a murder-suicide.

A neighbor called 911 after hearing shots fired Tuesday afternoon at a mobile home park just north of Branson. When police arrived, they found Kesya Leal, 17, who lived in the home with her mother, and Brandon Rowan, 22, of Jonesboro, Ark., dead of gunshot wounds.

Leal's grandmother and several young children were in the home at the time of the shooting, Taney County coroner David Rozell said. A handgun was found at the scene.

Rozell declined to discuss a motive for the shooting. At least three shots were fired.
