EL DORADO, Ark. (AP) -- A man and a woman are dead following what authorities say was a murder-suicide.
Union County Sheriff Ken Jones says 60-year-old Dana Johnson was killed Wednesday inside her home in Felsenthal.
Deputies found her after answering a call about a man who was found dead inside a truck parked in Johnson's driveway. Jones says a small caliber handgun was recovered from the vehicle.
Based on evidence found at the scene, Jones says the man died from a self-inflicted gunshot wound to the head. His name was not released because his family had not been notified.
Jones says preliminary evidence indicates Johnson died from a gunshot wound to the head.
The sheriff says both bodies have been transported to the State Crime Lab for autopsies by the state medical examiner.
