Two people and a pet found shot dead in Georgetown home

A man, woman and a pet were found shot dead inside a Scott County home on Tuesday, according to the Georgetown Police Department.

The shooting happened on Secretariat Street. Georgetown police assistant chief Josh Nash said the department received a call from a family member who was checking in on the home and reported two people dead of gunshot wounds.

Officers confirmed a male and female were dead from gunshot wounds, according to Nash. A pet was also found dead inside the home.

On Tuesday afternoon Scott County Coroner Mark Sutton identified the victims as Darci Beaver, 44, and Dan Harlowe, 32. Beaver and Harlowe were from Georgetown and died from gunshot wounds.

Beaver and Harlowe weren’t married and weren’t related, according to Sutton.

Nash said investigators haven’t officially determined what happened yet. The victims are scheduled to undergo an autopsy and the incident is still under investigation.

“There’s all kinds of ways to dig in to see if there was something that led to this, and that just takes time,” Nash said.

In a Facebook post Tuesday, police said there is no ongoing threat to the public.
