Utah man kills wife, himself with family's three children in the house during shocking tragedy

An argument turned into a devastating tragedy as a Utah man killed his wife and then shot himself early Sunday morning with the couple's three children in the house, police said. Bret Pepper, 39, got into a heated argument with his wife Jill, 37, in the couple's bedroom around 1:30 a.m. when he pulled out a handgun and shot her, Lt. Shawn Horton of the Layton Police Department told the Daily News on Monday. Pepper then turned the gun on himself, Horton said. The shocking incident occurred as the couple's 20-year-old daughter listened outside the room. The girl, who was home from college, then alerted police, Horton said. The couple has two sons, ages 10 and 13, who were also home at the time of the shooting, he said.
