Authorities say a man and woman found dead in a central Pennsylvania motel room apparently died of drug overdoses.
The (Pottsville) Republican-Herald reports that officers were sent to the Pottsville Motor Inn just before 10 p.m. Thursday after the two were found unresponsive.
The Schuylkill County coroner's office said 31-year-old Charles Harig III and 26-year-old Brittany Guris were pronounced dead at the scene.
Police chief Richard Wojciechowsky said the two apparently died of an opiate overdose. He said security video indicated that no one else had contact with the pair after they checked in.
The chief said laboratory tests are pending and the investigation is continuing.
