NORTH UNION TOWNSHIP, Pa. — (WPXI) – A man and woman were found dead at a reported hostage situation in Fayette County. The public was asked to avoid an apartment building in North Union Township all day Wednesday due to an active police incident that, according to court documents, was a hostage situation. State Police told Channel 11 that there was an “extremely active scene” at Woodview Terrace. Troopers were called to the area at 8:07 a.m. Two people were found dead in an apartment. Fayette County Coroner Bob Baker identified them as Megan Kulenovic, 27, and Charles Nara, 36, both of Uniontown. “When police got there, they found smoke coming out of the apartment. Based on that and the info contained in the note, it led to us treating this as an active hostage,” according to Fayette County district attorney Michael Aubele. A criminal complaint Channel 11 obtained alleges Nara was holding a woman hostage in an apartment on Wednesday.“Mr. Nara has been a subject of previous investigations, including the sexual assault of a child. There was a response here earlier in the week. The police are very familiar with him,” Aubele added. People who live in Woodview Terrace were evacuated from their homes on Wednesday morning. Around 2 p.m., some tenants were able to go back home, but those who cannot are receiving assistance from the Red Cross. The lockdown was put in place out of an abundance of caution, district officials said.
