Officials in Washington County are investigating an apparent murder-suicide after finding a young married couple dead in their Sharpsburg home. 

The Sheriff's Office says a family member went to the couple's home in the 2700 block of Harper's Ferry Road and found 21-year-old Rhiannon Leah Passmore and her husband, 24-year-old Tyler Matthew Passmore, dead. 

Both were found with wounds to the head consistent with gunshots. The cause of death is still being determined by an autopsy at the Office of the Medical Examiner in Baltimore. 

The investigation is still ongoing.
