Police: Man, Woman Shot And Killed On Long Island Street

BAY SHORE, N.Y. (CBSNewYork/AP) -- Police are investigating the fatal shooting of a man and a woman as they walked on a Long Island street.

Suffolk County police say the victims, David Arzu of Bay Shore and Janelle Curella of Manoville, were shot around 9:25 p.m. Friday in Bay Shore.

"We heard what we thought were fireworks because the people next door sometimes shoot fireworks off randomly. And then we found out later on that they were most likely gunshots," one man who lives nearby told WCBS 880's Sophia Hall. 

Both victims, who were in their late 20s, were taken to a hospital where they were pronounced dead.
