Autopsy results in for Vermont homicide investigation

Autopsy results from Vermont State Police are in for the deaths of Mary Anderson and Matthew Davis. Davis has ties to the Pittsfield area.

Anderson was found dead in her truck Tuesday in Brattleboro.

Davis, her former boyfriend, was shot dead by state police in West Brattleboro later that same day. Anderson’s autopsy shows she died after being shot in the head.

Davis died of gunshot wounds to his torso. Both deaths have been ruled as homicides.
The report says a separate review will determine if the police use of deadly force was justified in Davis’s death.

A statement released by the town of Brattleboro says “while we are stunned by what has happened, the town of Brattleboro wants to acknowledge this heartbreaking moment on behalf of this community”, adding for the families of those involved, “our hearts go out to them.”
