A 64-year-old man is being questioned by Mason County police after his wife of 37-years was found dead in their home in Lake Cushman.
Police say the man’s 56-year-old wife died from a gunshot wound.
“They were married for 37 years. She apparently died of a gunshot wound,” said Chief Deputy Dean Byrd.
Byrd says that it will probably be a while before his department has answers because of the nature of the investigation.
Byrd says they’re looking into whether this might’ve been a case of assisted suicide.
