Two people were killed early Saturday morning in two separate incidents.

A man was shot and killed around 12:30 a.m. and a woman riding a bike was struck and killed by a drunk driver just after 2:30 a.m.

Police are looking for suspects in the shooting death of Travondrick Deshawn Ward, who also goes by Toby.

Police say Ward was shot and killed in the 1900 block of 66th Street.

Anyone with information is asked to call the LPD Crime Line at 806-741-1000.

Police are also investigating a fatal accident involving a bicyclist in the 3600 block of 4th Street. Police say Benito Capellan was driving a Dodge pickup truck when he struck the bicyclist from behind.

The woman riding the bike was transported to UMC but later died. Her identity has not been released, pending the notification of her family.
