SELINSGROVE – How two people died in a home in Snyder County is not known. Earlier today the county coroner told WKOK, it could have been carbon monoxide involved in the death of Donovan Gillison and his 15-year-old daughter.’ Since then, other investigators and family members said that is possible but so are other possibilities.
41-year-old Donovan and the unidentified teen died in a home at 946 Fisher Road in Monroe Township. Officials say there were no guns or weapons involved. An autopsy was conducted at the Lehigh Valley Hospital and the coroner said tests and analysis associated with the autopsies will help determine the cause of death.
State police tell us the deaths occurred sometime Monday or Tuesday, but they don’t specify how or exactly when. The investigation began Tuesday afternoon about 2:30pm; Fisher Road was closed at the scene. State police and the D-A Mike Piecuch say the public is not in any danger after the two deaths in Snyder County.
The Selinsgrove Area School District reacted today, in part, by making counselors available to students.
