Police in North Carolina discovered the bodies of a missing couple in a wooded area, suspecting a tragic murder-suicide. Cynthia Gobble, 60, and her estranged husband, Greg Goble, 59, were found dead with gunshot wounds, ending a search that began after an Ashanti Alert was issued for Cynthia. The Davie County Sheriff’s Office had been searching for the couple, eventually locating their bodies in Iredell County.
According to officials, Cynthia and Greg were in the midst of a divorce, and evidence suggests that Greg killed his wife before taking his own life. After a welfare check at Cynthia’s home revealed that she was missing, investigators found signs indicating that she had been forcibly removed from her residence.
Greg was identified as a person of interest in the disappearance, but efforts to locate him and his white food truck were unsuccessful until the discovery of the bodies. An Ashanti Alert was issued for Cynthia, citing potential physical endangerment or kidnapping. The Iredell County Sheriff’s Office located Greg’s food truck in a wooded area, leading to the tragic discovery of both bodies.
Investigators confirmed that the murder weapon was found near the bodies and stated that they do not suspect the involvement of any other individuals in the incident. The case is being processed by detectives from Iredell and Davie counties, assuring the public that there is no ongoing danger to the community. The tragic outcome underscores the complexities of domestic situations and the devastating impact they can have on families and communities.
