Wellington Woman Shot At Case Rd Home Crowned Case
A 45 year old woman Clara Lapp was found fatally shot in the bathroom of her Case Road home in Wellington. Her husband Raymond Lapp, 41, discovered the body and told deputies he had questioned possible explanations while authorities began an inquiry into the shooting. The Lapp family includes eight year old daughter Dollie and two Toledo based sisters. Deputies said the weapon, a German Luger pistol, was found near the sink and the bullet lodged in a wall between bathroom and kitchen. The husband stated she had a nervous condition and had threatened self harm on multiple occasions. He claimed she dropped off their daughter at Ridgeville School this morning before the shooting. The coroner and deputies continued inquiries into the circumstances as they prepared to take the body to Elyria Memorial.
