OLD ORCHARD BEACH, Maine (AP) – Maine state police say they are investigating the deaths of a husband and wife found shot to death in their home in the seaside town of Old Orchard Beach as a murder-suicide.

Sgt. Chris Harriman said a family friend found 55-year-old Bruce Savoy and 50-year-old Stacey Savoy inside their Pleasant Street home shortly after 9 a.m. Tuesday. Nobody heard gunshots, but police think the shootings took place Monday around 6 p.m.

Harriman said Bruce Savoy worked as a code enforcement officer in Wells and as a volunteer firefighter in Old Orchard Beach, and that Stacey Savoy worked at Unum Corp.

Police said a gun has been recoveredby the bodies and three suicide notes were found inside the house written by Savoy, who cited the pending breakup of his marriage. The bodies were taken to the state medical examiner’s office for examination.
