The deaths of two Cardinal Mooney students found in a township cemetery in December have been ruled suicides.

Police found the bodies of Jamie Serich, 17, of Walker Mill Road, and Colin Hart, 18, of Wildwood Drive, early Dec. 6 in Forest Lawn Memorial Park.

Both had gunshot wounds to the head.

Dr. Joseph Ohr, forensic pathologist and deputy Mahoning County coroner, signed the certificates, which also say that the approximate interval between onset of the injuries and death was seconds.
