PETERS TOWNSHIP, Pa. — Police are investigating after two people were found dead in Peters Township Sunday morning after an apparent murder-suicide.
Investigators said they responded to a call at a home in the 100 block of Marlboro Drive in Peters Township around 7 a.m.
Police believe what started out as a domestic incident between 48-year-old Craig Bryan and 44-year-old Kelly Bryan escalated.
People who know Kelly said she was a friendly person who always had a smile on her face.
"Now looking back you have no idea what she was going through but she was always friendly," Stacey French Finnegan, a customer at the PNC Bank where Kelly worked, said.
