SEYMOUR, Ind. (AP): Police have released the names of the two men fatally shot in an apparent murder-suicide at a Cummins Inc. plant in southern Indiana.
Seymour police say the two were 49-year-old Ward R. Edwards of Columbus and 37-year-old Qing Chen of Seymour.
Police say Chen was the gunman and Edwards was his direct supervisor at the Seymour Engine Plant. Both men were found dead in a room of the plant’s technical and office center. They say a 9mm Glock handgun was recovered at the scene about 60 miles south of Indianapolis.
Police say search warrants have been served on both men’s vehicles and on Chen’s apartment in Seymour.
Autopsies are planned Friday.
Seymour police haven’t released any other details, but a State Police spokesman has characterized the incident as a murder-suicide.
