COGAN STATION, Pa. — Authorities in central Pennsylvania are
investigating the death of a man and woman whose bodies were found in a
burning sport utility vehicle as a possible murder-suicide.
Officials in Lycoming County told The (Williamsport) Sun-Gazette
that the bodies of 42-year-old Seth Snyder of Hepburn Township and
38-year-old Cherilyn Kephart were found in the SUV outside his parents’
home along route 973.
Chief William Solomon of the Old Lycoming Township police
department says investigators believe Snyder used an accelerant to set
the fire at about 11:30 p.m. Thursday.
Court records indicate that he had been arrested last fall on a
charge of assaulting the victim. Under a protection from abuse order
later granted to her, the two were to have no contact other than
exchanging custody of their two young children.
