GLENDALE DOUBLE MURDER-SUICIDE: Cathy Murch reportedly killed her 11-year-old son, Mitch Murch III and nine year old daughter, Mary Claire, before turning the gun on herself in an apparent double murder-suicide at her Glendale, MO, home Monday.

KSDK reports the victims were found in three different rooms and Mitch Murch, the husband and father of the children, was found performing CPR on his son when the police arrived.

The children were pronounced dead at an area hospital.

UPDATE#1 (08/01/12):  Police are now saying they aren’t so sure this was a murder suicide. Mitch Murch isn’t being named as a suspect, but this may not have been a murder-suicide.

    Your headline is inappropriate and should be taken down. Putting the word “apparent” at the end of the headline is not acceptable. Be rational about this: The daughter was found on the second floor, the son in the front room and the mother in the kitchen, and meanwhile Mitch is sitting around calling the cops to report he’s hearing gun shots OUTSIDE? So take down your headline. You are embarrassing yourself.
