Former NBC 38 reporter Christina Chambers was found dead this morning in what police say is a murder-suicide. A death investigation is underway in Hoover, Alabama where Chambers resided.

According to the Hoover Police Department at 9:03 A.M., the Hoover 911 center received a call that a husband and wife were unresponsive at their residence after being discovered by a family member. A 3-year-old child was also located in the house but was unharmed.

Hoover Fire-Medics responded to the residence and pronounced a male and a female deceased from gunshot wounds. Although the investigation is in its early stages, it appears these deaths are the result of a murder/suicide and there is no threat to the public related to this case.

Chambers left WLTZ NBC 38 in 2013 for her native Alabama. She joined WBRC in Birmingham as a sports reporter in 2015 working full time until 2021. Chambers was currently working as a freelancer for the station at the time of her death.
