BERKELEY SPRINGS, W.Va. — Authorities have released the names of the Maryland man and woman who died Friday night in what police have termed a murder-suicide.
Morgan County Sheriff KC Bohrer tells the Panhandle News Network the victim was Jessica Craver, 41. The shooter has been identified as August Schillinger, 48. They both lived in Maryland.
The incident happened Friday night in the parking lot of Coolfont Resort in Berkeley Springs.
Bohrer said Schillinger was waiting on Craver to leave the resort at about 9 p.m. Boher said when she saw him she began running through the parking lot and Schillinger shot Craver several times–using two different handguns. Bohrer said Schillinger then shot and killed himself.
Bohrer said the shootings were captured on the resort’s video system.
