Enterprise police are not sure what prompted a 37-year-old resident to shoot his wife, attempt to shoot his daughter and then kill himself.

Enterprise Police Capt. Mike Lolley said police responded to a 911 call Sunday morning at 1:47 a.m. at 112 Harrand Creek Drive. When they arrived, they found Ronald Zaremba, Jr., and his wife, Jenni Zaremba, 37, both dead in the master bedroom. Both died from gunshot wounds.

The 14-year-old girl was found in her bedroom uninjured. Lolley said the girl made the 911 call, and evidence indicates Ronald Zaremba, Jr., shot his wife twice and also fired one shot from a 45-caliber handgun into the girl’s bedroom before shooting himself. The girl was uninjured.

Lolley said the investigation determined that the couple had been out with friends earlier Saturday evening and began arguing when they arrived back at their residence. Lolley also said police responded to a domestic violence call in 2008 between Ronald Zaremba, Jr., and a juvenile that no longer lives at the residence.

Lolley said the girl is with other family members. VOCAL (Victims of Crime Against Leniency) is providing her with counseling.
