Meleanie Hain, called "Pistol-Packin' Mom" for her habit of bringing a loaded handgun to her five-year-old daughter's soccer game, and her husband, Scott Hain, were found dead last night after a two hour police standoff at their house in Lebanon, Pa. Both Meleanie Hain and Scott Hain were found with gunshot wounds, and, though no other people besides Meleanie Hain and Scott Hain are believed to be involved in the incident, and police are unofficially calling it a murder-suicide.
Meleanie Hain had her concealed-carry permit revoked last year, and successfully sued to get it back.
Several neighbors said they heard or saw the couple's children run from the house screaming, "Daddy shot Mommy!" shortly before the 911 Center was called at 6:20 p.m.
Hain was dubbed the 'pistol-packin' mom' after wearing her holstered 9mm Glock pistol to her 5-year-old daughter's soccer match in 2008.
