State police are investigating a murder-suicide in Carbon County Thursday.


Troopers say Megan Leland, 26, of Palmerton, and Kyle Gruver, 27, of Fleetwood, were found dead at a Towamensing Township home Thursday evening.

An investigation revealed that Gruver was upset over a recent breakup with Leland and arrived at her home sometime between 7 a.m and 5:50 p.m.

Gruver reportedly bludgeoned, stabbed, and shot Leland multiple times before turning the gun on himself, according to state police.

Authorities say there is no threat to the public or surrounding communities.

The investigation is still ongoing.
