"No Known Domestic Violence History"


"BECKLEY, WV - Two elderly people died from gunshot wounds Monday morning, and Beckley Police say their deaths were possibly a murder/suicide.

"The shooting in the 100 block of Tolley Drive (???) was reported around 10:30 a.m. Monday, said Capt. Jeff Shumate, chief of detectives. The victims were a man and a woman. One was pronounced dead at the scene, and the other was taken to a local hospital, where he/she was pronounced dead on arrival. Their names are being withheld because of pending family notifications.

"One person contacted a neighbor, Shumate said. The neighbor then called for emergency medical service workers, who then contacted police.

"The victims have no known domestic violence history, Shumate said."
