Fairdealing Shooting Update

By A. Hatton/Day

Fairdealing, Ky. – Marshall County Sheriff Kevin Byars says the autopsy of a Fairdealing couple who died in an alleged murder-suicide will take longer than expected. Since the Madisonville Medical Examiner's office is now closed, the remains must be transported to Louisville. The incident occurred Saturday night near Kentucky Lake. The sheriff's office reports, 66-year-old John Armstrong called a dispatcher and said he had shot his wife and planned to kill himself. Deputies responded and found Armstrong and 73-year-old Marjorie Armstrong dead.
