The parents of a 20-year-old college student living in Michigan said their daughter was being stalked by her ex-boyfriend for months before police found her dead in an apparent murder-suicide Saturday night.

“You see this happening on the news and you never think it’s going to happen to you. … It just doesn’t even seem real, you know,” the victim’s father, James Carroll, told ABC affiliate WXYZ.

Westland police said Sarah Carroll was found dead at an apartment complex and was fatally shot by her boyfriend, the outlet reports.

The ex then called police to report he killed the victim before taking his own life, Jennifer Carroll, Sarah Carroll’s mom, told the outlet.

Authorities did not immediately respond to HuffPost for more details about the events leading up to the shooting.
