Ohio police investigate suspected murder-suicide outside Taco Bell

Investigators are still trying to determine what happened in an apparent murder-suicide outside a Taco Bell restaurant in Cuyahoga Falls, Ohio, last week, as the perpetrator and victim do not appear to have known each other.

Police found two people shot to death at the drive-thru Wednesday evening. Authorities identified the shooter as Jason Williams, 53, and the victim as Megan Keleman, 25.

Police say the incident began when Keleman pulled up in front of Williams in a drive-thru, leading to an argument and Williams shooting Keleman before killing himself.

The coroner determined Keleman suffered a gunshot wound to the neck and ruled her death a homicide, while Williams’ death was ruled a suicide by gunshot wound to the head.
