Police said officers were dispatched to a Twin City residence last Saturday at about 9:30 p.m. for a domestic disturbance. When officers arrived at the home, they found the woman, identified as Zaria Carr, unconscious. She was later pronounced dead.

It remains unclear how she died.

Cops said they couldn’t immediately locate her husband, 36-year-old Shamarcus Jameal Carr. Her 2021 Dodge Challenger was also missing.

After an alert was put out for the vehicle, police said it was located in Wayne County around 11 p.m. that night. When officers attempted to stop the car, he was found inside and shot himself. He was taken to a local hospital where he later died from his injuries.

His death is being investigated by the Wayne County Sheriff’s Office.

Shamarcus Carr was known as “The Frenchman” on Facebook to his 47,000 followers due to his breeding of French bulldogs, a source told People.

On his page are photos of a pregnant woman. The source identified the woman as Zaria Carr, who went by “Dutchess Dior” on Facebook.

In her last update, shared Saturday at around 6 p.m., she pleaded for help from her 36,000 followers.

“I really don’t know what to do .. but i need help before i lose my life or freedom! My kids need me!”

Authorities declined to confirm the true identities of the Facebook profiles but said they are aware of them.
