OGDEN — An Ogden woman apparently shot her terminally ill husband to death before turning the gun on herself Friday.
Ogden police are investigating what appears to be a murder-suicide after a family member stopped by their home twice and got no response at the door on Christmas Day.
The family member called police, who went into the home and found the two people.
Robert Stom, 65, had terminal health problems and died of multiple gunshot wounds, said Ogden Police Lt. Marcy Korgenski. His wife, Patricia Stom, 70, also appeared to have died of a gunshot wound.
Autopsies were performed Saturday and detectives are in the process of investigating, Korgenski said.
