Edward L. Heflin, 25, is recovering from gunshot wounds to the neck and chest but is still medically unable to speak, investigators said.

Heflin drove himself to Grandview Hospital about 7:15 p.m. Wednesday and collapsed right inside the emergency room, police said.

The other two men, 21-year-old Ryan J. Daniel and 29-year-old Thomas Casey were found dead about 30 minutes later in a house at 857 Euclid Ave, according to police.

Lt. John Bardun said the incident was the result of an attempted marijuana deal that went bad.
