Two women were found dead along a rural trail in a Johnson Country park yesterday. The women, who were in their 50s, appeared to have died from multiple gunshot wounds to the head. The names of the deceased have not yet been released.
The women were discovered by a passerby in a wooded area in Gary Halley
Streamway Park, located near Shawnee Mission Parkway and Barker Road. Police got the call which reported the
discovery of the two dead bodies around 3:07 p.m. yesterday; however it is unknown
how long the bodies had been there.
A gun has been recovered from the scene, as well as a white Chrysler PT
Cruiser, which authorities believe is connected to the victims. Neighbors in
the area reportedly heard a quick succession of shots, indicating that several
bullets were fired.
Johnson County police have not classified the case yet, but are
considering that the deaths could be the result of a murder-suicide. Due to the
possibility of a murder-suicide, police are currently not looking for any
suspects, but are interviewing residents close to the area where the bodies
were discovered. Police have also not
released any additional information about the two victims, awaiting autopsy
results. More information will likely be released today on the victims and any
possibly motives.
