A television anchorwoman who was haunted by threatening calls and a letter from a rebuffed male admirer was shot to death in her driveway, but investigators Monday didn’t rule out other suspects.

Diane Newton King of WUHQ-TV in Battle Creek was shot twice Saturday night as she turned to get her two children out of her car.

Police officers searched the farmhouse where Newton King, 34, and her husband, former police officer Bradford King, lived with their 3-year-old son and 3-month-old daughter.
