GARDEN CITY, Mich. – Police are investigating what they believe to be a murder-suicide in Garden City that left a 77-year-old grandmother dead.
It happened Wednesday at a home on Rosslyn Avenue, just north of the intersection of Cherry Hill and Venoy roads.
Police said they found the body of Maria Ortega, a ten-year-old grandmother and also a great-grandmother, inside the house.
“She was the most generous person we know and she was always there when we needed her,” Sandy Quintana said. “I would never call you, I was always happy to be with you. The family would give him the day because his life is family. “
According to authorities, Ortega’s husband, 81, was rushed to hospital with stab wounds and a twenty-year-old man was also found dead inside the house.
“Our grandfather has been rushed to the hospital, we don’t know his condition, we just hope he stays with us,” Quintana said. “It’s so hard right now because it was so unexpected.”
Garden City police released few details about the investigation.
“My grandmother was the most supportive and generous person I know. She was always so generous and so loving, ”said Quintana. “She had her heart up her sleeve, she would do anything to see you smile just to see you happy. She didn’t deserve that.”
The investigation is ongoing.
