Plano Man Found Dead in His Home

Plano police are trying to figure out who killed 68-year-old Larry Brandt in his Plano duplex.

Brandt was found Friday morning at 8 a.m. by his daughter. Police said he had severe trauma to his head.

"We're not sure if it's blunt force trauma or if it's a gunshot." said Officer Rick McDonald, of the Plano Police Department.

Detectives said they found signs of a fight inside the duplex in the 3900 block of San Mateo Drive. Officers also found some of Brandtโ€™s belonging scattered in the front lawn.

"Some kind of altercation did take place here. Maybe even a burglary could have taken place," McDonald said.

Neighbors said Brandt ran a successful lawn care business, and was getting ready for a busy spring season.
