Ogallah, KS: Deaths ruled a murder-suicide by investigators


OGALLAH -- Investigators have determined the deaths of two Ogallah residents was a result of a murder-suicide, according to a statement released this morning by the Trego County Sheriff's office.
The Heartings were discovered in their Ogallah home when the sheriff's office was called to check on their welfare March 26.
As a result of an investigation by the sheriff's office and the Kansas Bureau of Investigation, it has been determined Susan G. Hearting, 51, died as a result of a gunshot wound inflicted by Duane E. Hearting, 56. He then died from a subsequent, self-inflicted gunshot wound, the release went on to say.
"The investigation will continue, but at this time, it does not appear that another person or persons were involved in either death," the statement reads.
