Three people killed in quiet Swiss village after dispute.

In the serene village of Vetroz, nestled in the picturesque Swiss canton of Valais, a shocking and devastating incident has taken place. The quiet Sunday morning was shattered by the sound of gunshots ringing out from a flat on Ruelle Centrale. The peaceful community was left reeling as the news spread that three people had lost their lives in this small village known for its exquisite wines.

As authorities arrived on the scene, they discovered the bodies of a man and a woman at the property where the gunshots were reported. The discovery prompted a major operation, with police launching an intensive search for the perpetrator. Following leads from the property, they were led to the home of a suspect in the shooting.

Local media sources have indicated that the alleged attacker was a man in his 50s, who was in legal possession of the weapon that ended his own life. Tragically, at the suspect's home, another body was found, adding to the already devastating loss of life. It is believed that this third victim also died from a gunshot wound.

The mayor of Vetroz, Olivier Cottagnoud, has expressed his shock and heartbreak at the tragic events that have unfolded in his community. He described the killings as a "tragedy" and a "devastating loss" for the small town. The victims have not yet been formally identified, but according to local news outlet Tio, the two bodies discovered at the property were the suspect's wife and her new partner.

The suspect and the female victim were reportedly in the midst of a divorce after being married for 20 years.

The Swiss Public Prosecutor's Office, in collaboration with the Valais Cantonal police, is currently conducting a thorough investigation to uncover the true motive behind this senseless act of violence.
