LONGVIEW — Longview investigators say two deaths appear to be suspicious. On Friday, authorities released the identities of two bodies found Thursday morning. Laura Beth Sullivan, 28 and Zocorius Lamonte Gray, 19, both from Longview were located around 9:10 after officers responded to a welfare call at 128 Myrle Street. The caller told dispatchers that two people at the location appeared to be dead. Authorities found Sullivan and Gray inside an upstairs garage apartment behind a duplex on Myrle Street. Authorities say the deaths appear to be suspicious and foul play is suspected.
Detectives are pursuing numerous leads, but an arrest has not been made and a motive for the shooting has not been announced. Detectives do feel certain the shooting was not a random act. “I believe the individuals were targeted,” said Justice of the Peace B.H. Jameson.
