Man, Woman Found Dead in Descanso Home in Apparent Homicide: SDSO

When officials arrived, they found a 45-year-old woman and 50-year-old man dead inside the home

A man and woman with trauma to their bodies were found dead in a Descanso home Wednesday afternoon in an apparent homicide, San Diego County Sheriff's officials (SDSO) said.

San Diego County Sheriff's Lt. Rich Williams said they are not looking for a suspect after a witness statement and preliminary investigation around the home.

But that could change depending on what the investigation finds.

Deputies first responded to the home, located in the 10300 block of Boulder Creek Road, around 2 p.m. Wednesday for a call reporting unknown trouble at the home. 

When officials arrived, they found a 45-year-old woman and 50-year-old man dead inside the home. Both bodies had trauma, officials said. 

Sheriff's Homicide Detail was called to the scene and launched a homicide investigation. 

Investigators wouldn't say where the two bodies were found inside the home and what type of trauma or where it was found on their bodies. 

At this time investigators say there doesn't appear to be a history of trouble at the home but that's something that will be looked into during the investigation.

The Medical Examiner's office will conduct autopsies in order to determine the exact cause and manner of death. 

No information was given about how they were related to each other.

The incident remains under investigation. No further information is available.

The ME's office will also identify the victims.
