Franklin County Sheriff's deputies say a husband and wife were found dead Tuesday at a home on the southwest side. Deputies are treating the shooting deaths of 56-year-old John Gebhardt and 51-year-old Paula Ratcliff-Gebhardt as a murder-suicide. Their bodies were found at a home on Little Avenue. Deputies believe the two were involved in a domestic dispute, and the man shot his wife before taking his own life.
