Friend Finds Bodies Of Dead Couple


"YPSILANTI TWP, MI — Two people are dead in what appears to be a murder-suicide in Ypsilanti Township, Washtenaw County sheriff’s department spokesman Derrick Jackson said.

"A 53-year-old man is believed to have shot his 47-year-old wife to death and then turned the gun on himself at their home in the 800 block of Lamay Street in Ypsilanti Township, Jackson said.

"A friend had tried to call the couple today and was not able to reach them and then drove to their house to check on them, Jackson said. The friend saw that their cars were both there, but no one answered the door. He looked in the window and saw one of them lying on the floor.

"He got a neighbor to help him, and the two of them kicked down the door and discovered the bodies inside about 3:15 p.m. this afternoon, Jackson said.

"A family member last had telephone contact with the couple about 10 p.m. Wednesday, Jackson said."
