A man and woman found dead in a Waconia Township home Tuesday have been identified as Kenneth and Beverly Gongoll.
Carver County sheriff's deputies discovered the couple's bodies when they received a 911 call about a suspicious incident at 9:27 a.m. Tuesday, authorities said. Kenneth Gongoll shot his wife before killing himself, said Sheriff Jim Olson. Both were 62.
Their deaths remain under investigation, Olson said.
