Rockville - Authorities say two workers found fatally shot at a health care facility in western Indiana died in a murder-suicide.

The Parke County sheriff's department says in a statement that 27-year-old Ryan J. Clark of Mecca fatally shot 30-year-old Kenneth A. Godfrey of Rockville in the chest on Friday in a maintenance area at the Lee Alan Bryant Health Care Facility.

The department says Clark then went to a boiler room in another building that is part of the same facility and shot himself in the head. A co-worker found Clark's body and called officers, who found Godfrey's body.

The statement Saturday said the men had been in a dispute.

Rockville is located about 60 miles west of Indianapolis.
