Coroner names couple found dead in Summerlin after apparent murder-suicide
The Clark County coroner’s office has identified the couple found dead Saturday after an apparent murder-suicide at a Summerlin apartment complex.
They were Jeffrey David Lobel, 51, and Cicilia Apolo, 55, the coroner’s office said. Both died of gunshot wounds. Apolo’s death was ruled a homicide; Lobel’s death was ruled a suicide.
Officers were called to the Falling Waters Apartments complex, 1350 N. Town Center Drive, around 11 a.m. after an out-of-state relative who had not heard from the couple in a week requested a welfare check. When officers arrived to their apartment, they discovered the couple dead.
Police said in a Sunday news release that Apolo had been suffering from health issues and that the married couple was “in a financial crisis.”
