LOS ANGELES — Los Angeles police say a rapper apparently shot and killed his TV actress wife and himself at a Los Angeles apartment.

Police say the bodies discovered Monday morning are those of 34-year-old Earl Warren Hayes and 30-year-old Stephanie Elyse Moseley.

Hayes was a rapper and an acquaintance of professional boxer Floyd Mayweather Jr.

Moseley was a dancer and actress who appeared in the VH1 cheerleader drama “Hit the Floor.”

Police say they went to the apartment complex after neighbors reported shots being fired and a woman screaming.

Officers heard more shots and called in a special weapons and tactics team, which found the couple dead.

There’s no word yet on a motive.
