Greenville Couple Were Stabbed to Death in Home

GREENVILLE, S.C. (AP) _ Authorities say an elderly Greenville couple was stabbed to death in what a deputy coroner called a brutal double homicide. Greenville County deputies say acquaintances of 78-year-old Gary Wells and his 77-year-old wife, Helen, found them dead after no one answered the door Wednesday. Chief Deputy Coroner Mike Ellis says it appears the couple died the day before they were found. He says they were each cut or stabbed several times. Deputies say they haven’t made any arrests, but they don’t think there is an immediate danger to the public. Investigators say Helen Wells filed a police report about money stolen from the couple’s bank account last month.
