Centerville police find man, woman dead in home after standoff

A standoff Tuesday morning ended with two people dead inside of a Centerville home at 100 Arbor Creek in the Old Stone Crossing subdivision.

Centerville police arrived on the scene after getting a call from Timothy Price, a 41-year old Byron man, saying he shot his wife, Katherine, 36, of Warner Robins, and needed help. The call came in at 8:52 a.m. Police tried to speak to the man once on scene, but no one responded.

The police deployed tear gas in an attempt to force Timothy outside. When he did not leave the house, Centerville police entered and found Timothy and Katherine dead from gunshot wounds.

The GBI has been asked to assist in the investigation. Both bodies have been transported to the GBI crime lab for an autopsy.

The Telegraph will update when more details are made available.
