Mississippi candidate for state House shoots wife at her job and then kills himself, police say.
A candidate for the Mississippi House of Representatives shot his estranged wife at her job Tuesday, then turned the gun on himself, authorities said.
He then jumped a counter at the clinic, which is in far north Mississippi about an hour southeast of Memphis, and apparently fired another shot, the sheriff said."Then he killed himself and fell dead beside her," Dickerson told NBC News. Officers responded to the clinic just after 10 a.m. following a call that a suspect had shot one or more people.
