VO-NAT The victim is 60 year old Nancy Copin


(Cope-in) who was the minister of Snow
Creek Christian Church.
*CG locator Franklin Co.

We understand this morning two
members from the church went to her
home on Snow Creek Road after she
failed to show up at a church event
last night.

When they opened a back door they saw
blood and called 9-1-1.

Investigators were on the scene all
afternoon and well into the night
trying to piece together exactly how
Copin died.

I had a chance to talk to a church
member. He told me Copin moved to the
area two years ago to become the
minister at Snow Creek Christian
Church.

Keys vs. Avalanche This is Salem's 40th season in
the Carolina League, so appropriately
temperatures were in the 40s when the
first pitch was throw just after seven.

We pick it up in the bottom of
the third - the game is scoreless but
J.R. Towles - the catcher - singels to
left field and Josh Flores comes home
to make it 1-to-nothing.

But the Keys would warm up in the
top of the 5th as Zack Dillon hits one
deep to right field and drives in
Arturo Rivas to tie the game at one-all. *CG final Frederick
5 Still in the fifth - the Keys' Salem Blake Davis will lay down a nice bunt 4 to third and bring home Dillon on the
play.

The Keys get the 5 to 4 win in

the first game of the three game
series.
