Greenland, New Hampshire police chief Michael Maloney was shot to death along with a woman in a home early Friday morning, and the suspected gunman—Cullen Mutrie, 29—was also found dead inside. It’s still unclear whether Mutrie and his female acquaintance died of a double suicide or a murder-suicide.
