Pennsylvania State Police are investigating a suspected murder-suicide after responding to a call on Emlenton Clintonville Road, about one mile west of Oneida Valley Road, in Scrubgrass Township, Venango County.

Troopers from the PSP Franklin station arrived at the scene and found a 44-year-old white female with multiple gunshot wounds. She was pronounced dead at the scene.

Through investigation, police identified a 52-year-old white male as the suspect. Authorities say the individual had previous conflicts involving the victim and her husband.

A perimeter was established around the suspect’s residence, but attempts to communicate with him were unsuccessful. PSP tactical units later entered the home under a search warrant and found the suspect deceased in the living room from a self-inflicted gunshot wound.

The Major Case Team has been activated, and the investigation remains ongoing.
