Shoots Wife and Then Surrenders Former Johnstown Policeman Declares He’s Glad Woman is Now Dead John Edwards, formerly a policeman in Johnstown, Tuesday afternoon fired three bullets into his wife’s body at her home in Johnstown, killing her almost instantly. Ten minutes later while apparently intent upon reaching the police station to surrender, he was arrested opposite city hall. The man affects the utmost nonchalance and declares he is glad his wife is dead. Edwards and his wife signed separation papers a few weeks ago. Tuesday he went to the house where his wife was staying, whipped out a revolver and began shooting. He had been drinking. The man is about 49 years old and his wife, 52. She was the mother of four children. Edwards was brought to jail in Ebensburg Wednesday afternoon. He will be tried at the September term of court.
