LEE TWP., MI (WHTC-AM/FM, Jan. 7, 2023) – A family of four in southern Allegan County has passed away from what authorities are initially calling a homicide/suicide on Saturday afternoon.
According to Allegan County Sheriff’s Detective Lieutenant Mike Brown, deputies were dispatched to an address off of 54th Street in Lee Township around 12:35 PM after a man who had gone to that residence to check on family members inside didn’t get a response. That man called 911 when he peered into the windows and saw his niece lying on the bottom floor of that bi-level home.
When deputies arrived, they opened the front door and discovered the bodies of 34-year-old Roger Kyle Hagger, 35-year-old Cindy Clouse, and two children, aged 10 and 13. All four had apparent fatal gunshot wounds, and an initial investigation indicated that Haggar had shot the other three and then turned the weapon upon himself. An autopsy will be conducted before a final cause of death is determined.
The case remains open, and anyone with any information is asked to contact the Allegan County Sheriff’s Department (268-673-0500) or Allegan County Silent Observer (855-745-3680).
