UPDATE: The State Medical Examiner reported to AST that they have determined two of the three persons, Karen and Gerald Brown, died as a result of gunshot wounds. They also informed troopers that they as yet have not received toxicology results back on Jeffery Brown and so can’t determine cause or manner of death for Jeffery Brown.

Troopers say that no one else was involved in the incident.
