Coronavirus researcher killed in murder-suicide

A well-respected University of Pittsburgh Medical Center researcher was said to have been on the verge of 'very significant findings' related to thecoronavirus when police say he was killed in an apparent murder-suicide.

Dr Bing Liu, 37, was alone at his home in the 200 block of Elm Court in Ross Township on Saturday afternoon when another man - identified as 46-year-old Hao Gu - allegedly entered the residence through an unlocked door and opened fire.

Liu was struck by bullets in the head, neck and torso, and died of his injuries.

His wife was not home at the time of the homicide, the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette reported. The couple do not have children.

Police said Gu then returned to his car parked 100 yards away at Charlemagne Circle and turned the gun on himself.

Funny, all it took was one phone call to shut up what he found. Take your life, or we will take your families lives.... Poor guy. Unfortunately, his family is likely dead too... Come doesn't want this exposed.

There are literally 1000's of coronavirus researchers in this country right now. Every university medical center has teams working on this research and every private medical school as well.

Northwest Woodsman: I think you are correct in your assumption 1:03. Exactly what I was thinking. I have investigated numerous murders that resulted from gay relationships and found them to be extremely vicious, bloody, and certainly an overkill. The worst that I recall was committed with a hammer. They actually had to destroy the house after the perp was convicted because it couldn’t be cleaned and also due to the publicity.
