HOWARD TOWNSHIP, Mich. (AP) -- Authorities say they're investigating an apparent double homicide in southwestern Michigan.

The Herald-Palladium of St. Joseph and the South Bend Tribune report that 39-year-old Carolyn Tarwacki and her 40-year-old husband John Tarwacki were found dead Friday in their home in Cass County's Howard Township.

Michigan State Police asked the public to help locate a man who had been seen on foot near their home Friday morning.

The Tarwackis worked in Stevensville at Quinlan & Fabish Music Co., formerly known as Blessing Music Co. They supplied instruments, gear and maintenance contracts to music educators throughout Berrien and Cass counties.

The home is located in a rural area just east of the Niles city limits. Anyone with information is asked to call state police at 269-683-4411.
