Former UFC fighter Justin Levens and his wife were found shot to death on Wednesday, Dec. 17, in their Laguna Niguel, California, home, reports TMZ.com.
The 28-year-old Levens, known as “The Executioner”, competed in the Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC), World Extreme Cagefighting (WEC) and the now defunct International Fight League (IFL). He had a career record of 9-8.
Levens hasn’t fought in UFC or WEC since 2006, and one of his losses that year was to Evan Tanner, who died on a desert trip this year.
Sheriff’s spokesman Jim Amormino said the couple was found by the woman’s mother, who called 911.
Authorities are investigating the case as a possible murder/suicide.
