SCRANTON -- A man is dead and a woman is in the hospital with serious injuries after an altercation at an upscale apartment complex in Scranton.

There was a lot for investigators to sort out when they were called to The Mill apartments on James Avenue before dawn on Sunday.

Inside the apartment complex, a man was found dead and a woman was discovered with a serious head injury. She was taken to the hospital.

Investigators later determined the 35-year-old man from Carbondale had shot himself. Investigators say at this point they cannot tell how the woman was injured.

Their names have not been released.

The Mill holds both residences as well as businesses. It's popular with medical students who tell us the place is usually especially quiet. We spoke with one woman who is studying to become a coroner.

“I did recognize some familiar things that were happening this morning that I would see at work, so I was concerned about that. Definitely didn't expect it here,” said Allison Gaines of Scranton.

Police in Scranton say they will not know exactly what caused the woman's injury until she is well enough to speak to them.
