UPDATE: Murder suspect also charged with child endangerment

A Tazewell County man is facing an additional charge of child endangerment after a fatal shooting last week in Raven.

Investigators said a child was present at the home when David Whitt, 36, killed his estranged wife 32-year-old Ashley Whitt, and wounded 33-year-old Chris Shelton.

Whitt barricaded himself inside a home and was later found by officers with a self-inflicted gunshot wound. At last check, Whitt remains hospitalized.
