VAN WERT, OH (WLIO) - A one-million-dollar bond has been set for 38-year-old Ryan Houser of Rockford.
Houser is facing murder, tampering with evidence, and a weapons charge for the death of 43-year-old Barbara Ganger in September 2023. On Labor Day, Van Wert police officers were called to her apartment for a welfare check. They found her dead with gunshot wounds to the stomach and the eye. Houser has a pre-trial hearing set for later this month.
