Fort Wayne police and the Allen County Coroner’s Office are investigating the deaths of a man and woman Wednesday afternoon in what appears to have been a murder-suicide.
The coroner’s office said Thursday that Tanya Armour, 54, and a man reported to be her companion, Grady T. Edwards, 56, were found inside a house in the 3200 block of Beaver Avenue. Police arrived there after a report of shots fired.
Autopsies Thursday revealed that Edwards died of a gunshot wound to his neck and was a homicide victim. The coroner’s office said that Armour died as a result of a gunshot wound to her head in a suicide.
Edwards is the 17th homicide victim in Fort Wayne and Allen County so far this year.
