A murder-suicide is reported from a home on Law Martin Road in Piedmont, Alabama. Officers found 56-year-old Sandra Ranae Leath deceased from a gunshot wound and 49-year-old Dave Dewayne Pierce also dead from an apparent self-inflicted gunshot. The Piedmont Police Department, led by Interim Chief Nathan Johnson, responded just after 2:00 p.m. on a Saturday. Initial findings indicate Pierce shot Leath and then turned the gun on himself. The investigation is ongoing and police have not released further details; no arrests have been made since the suspected perpetrator is also deceased.

If anyone knew Sandra Ranae Leath or has information about who might have been at the Law Martin Road residence that day, please come forward.
