A 48-year-old woman is in Calhoun County Jail, without bond, in the murder of
Daniel Murray.

Battle Creek Police arrested Monica Gordon on Thursday, May 6. She was arraigned on charges of open murder and felony firearm, as a habitual offender.

Police were called on May 1 for a welfare check on 61-year-old Murray at his home on North Broad Street. Police found him in the home, killed by apparent gunshot wounds.
Police said Gordon took several items from Murray’s home, including a .45-caliber handgun, music equipment, and Murray’s vehicle. Police recovered the vehicle and music equipment, which helped them identify Gordon as a person of interest. They have not located the handgun.
