McALESTER, Okla. (AP) Pittsburg County authorities say they want to question a former plumber about a man and woman who were found shot to death early this morning at the man's home.

The Oklahoma State Bureau of Investigation says 27-year-old Roger Martin junior and 19-year-old Melissa Phillips were discovered slain on the porch of Martin's home.

Pittsburg County Undersheriff Richard Sexton says officers found the two about 4:30 Monday morning.

Sexton says authorities have been using tracking dogs from the Jackie Brannon Correctional Center to search for a person of interest in the case.

Investigators say 24-year-old BJ Srader had a prior relationship with Phillips and knew Martin, too.

Sexton says at least one adult and several children were in the home at the time of the shooting.
