MORGANTOWN, W.Va. (AP) — A West Virginia man suspected in four killings in separate shootings has been found dead of a self-inflicted gunshot wound after an hourslong manhunt, police said Monday.

Jody Lee Hunt, 39, of Westover was found in the woods in the southern part of Monongalia County, state police spokesman Lt. Dennis Johnson said.

Hunt's body was found in "a power line right of way" around 7 p.m., Johnson said.

Earlier, state police spokesman Lt. Michael Baylous said Hunt was wanted in two shootings in the Westover area and the other the same day in the Cheat Lake area in Monongalia County.
