Flomaton Murder-Suicide Victims Identified
November 2, 2016
The names of the two people killed in a Flomaton murder-suicide on Tuesday have been released.
At about 1:45 p.m., the Flomaton Police Department responded to a domestic altercation on Evelyn Street in the Holt Subdivision (pictured above). Inside the home, they body of a female, 43-year old Cory Blackmon Cole. Moments later, the body of 47-year old John Mitchell Cole was discovered with a self-inflicted gunshot wound at his residence just over two miles away on College Street near Nordan Street (pictured below).
Due to the Flomaton Police Department being small with limited resources, the investigation was turned over by Police Chief Bryan Davis to the Alabama Law Enforcement Agency’s State Bureau of Investigation.
The SBI’s findings will be handed over to the Escambia County District Attorney when the investigation is completed. Further details are not being released in the on-going investigation.
