Charlotte, Sept. 9—Lee R. Fulp of Statesville, held in connection with the mysterious death of W.W. Johnson of Mount Holly, and Robert L. Reed, held as a material witness, were still in jail tonight awaiting conclusion of the coroner’s inquest into Johnson’s death. The inquest opened today but after a long session was carried over until tomorrow for its conclusion.
Authorities tonight reported that there had been no development today in the situation. Both men admitted being with the dead a few hours before his dead body was found but were firm in their statements that they knew nothing about his death.
Johnson was found dead in Reed’s home here about noon Saturday, a bullet through his head having caused death.
