Recently unsealed records filed in Lackawanna County Court confirm that a suspicious death reported earlier this year in Dickson City is being investigated as a homicide. Authorities  suspect 68 year old Mary Harvey, suffered several head injuries Jan. 30 at her home on Bowman Street. The person who initially called 911 — a man who was temporarily staying there — told the police Harvey fell. The extent of the injuries to her head suggested otherwise. Investigators have not arrested anyone for Harvey’s killing, but they do have a suspect in mind. Asked for comment, District Attorney Mark Powell would only say the case remains under investigation.
