Senator Jonathan Nichols was found dead with a gunshot wound Wednesday

He was discovered inside his house and a police source reportedly said a gun was in the room where he was discovered at his home in Norman

Police would not confirm or deny the detail due to their ongoing investigation

A family member called 911 for the man who was married with two children 

His body was found 500 miles from Linda Collins-Smith - a GOP Arkansas former senator - who was found shot dead Tuesday

Her death is being treated as a murder investigation but cops are not looking for suspects in Nichols' case 

Cops told DailyMail.com: 'We have no reason to believe the two cases are linked' 

Nichols was fired from University of Oklahoma on president's first day last year

Nichols' most recent role was Senior Policy Advisor for Speaker Charles McCall 

Republican and Democratic peers were shocked and saddened about his death
