Disagreement Leads To Murder/Suicide

"PICCADILLY, N.L. (Canada) — Autopsies have confirmed that two men killed in a double shooting over the weekend died as part of a murder-suicide, Newfoundland RCMP said Wednesday.

"The medical examiner has concluded that each man died as a result of a single shot from a high-powered rifle that was found at the scene, according to a police news release.

"The two neighbours, now identified as Leroy Benoit, 35 and 47-year-old Claude Wiseman, were heard having a disagreement early Sunday morning in Piccadilly, on the west coast of Newfoundland.

"RCMP say Wiseman shot Benoit, killing him instantly, and then shot himself.

"It’s believed only Benoit had been drinking at the time of the altercation, the news release said.

"Wiseman was taken to hospital where he died."
