SULLIVAN, Mo. -- Police in the eastern Missouri town Sullivan continued Tuesday to investigate what they believe to be a murder-suicide. Officers were called to an apartment around 6:30 p.m. Monday and found 27-year-old Sara Lackey shot to death inside. About two minutes later, police received a call that a gunshot victim was in the parking lot of a business. There, officers found the body of Lackey's estranged husband, Harry Lackey, 58. Investigators believe Harry Lackey shot his wife, then drove to the lot and turned the gun on himself.
