Tijerina Jr., 16, and Michele Renna Couch, 14. The Weatherford High School students were apparently on a date, officials said. The deaths represent the second double homicide in six weeks for the north Texas com munity of 12,000, located just west of Fort Worth. “There was no reason at all (for the killing),” said the boy’s father, Vincent Sr., who found the pair shortly before 7 a.m. “He was the kind of boy who didn’t get into any trouble.” ——— \mmmrn HIFGoodrich W/MHIGH BRAZOS TIRE SERVICE AN AGGIE OWNED BUSINESS SINCE 1952 J.
