LANSING, Mich. (WLNS) — Lansing police are still searching this Sunday morning for a man wanted for questioning about a double-murder.

A 50-year-old man and a 53-year-old woman were killed in the 500 block of Woodrow Avenue this Thursday.

Police say they believe the incident to be a domestic situation.

This morning at the corner of Elizabeth Street and South Foster Avenue, there were police cars, a fire truck and an ambulance outside the home where authorities believed Whaley to be staying.

Police did enter the home after firing tear gas cannisters, but they were not able to make any arrests, as there was no one inside.
