Monday afternoon the Upson County Sheriff's Office and Thomaston Police Department responded to two separate calls which appear to be the murder-suicide of an estranged couple.

Major Dan Kilgore of the Sheriff's Office stated that the two victims were identified as Sandra Gail Carter, 47, and David Carter, 58, who had been separated for about a year.

The first call was to 102 West County Road, where the body of Sandra Carter was found in her residence by her daughter. The second call was to 328 Odom Road where the body of David Carter was found in the front yard.

According to Major Kilgore, it appears that Mr. Carter went to the residence of Sandra Carter, shot her and then drove to Odom Road where he turned the gun on himself.
