HENDERSON, Texas (AP) - Police say two people have been fatally shot and two wounded at an East Texas apartment complex and a suspect has been captured in Louisiana.

A Henderson police statement says 62-year-old Randy Buford Winn of Henderson was arrested Sunday night in Bienville (bee-EN'-vil) Parish, Louisiana, a few hours after the gunfire. Jail records didn't list an attorney to speak for Winn, who was being held without bond Tuesday on a Texas murder warrant.

Police didn't immediately provide a possible motive for the shootings or any relationship between Winn and those who died - 31-year-old Justin Smith and 37-year-old Holly Jones.

Two wounded adults were hospitalized in stable condition. Police say three children weren't injured during the gunfire and are with relatives.

Henderson is 130 miles (209.21 kilometers) southeast of Dallas
