TUCSON - A Tucson family is dealing with the violent deaths of two loved ones.
Their bodies were discovered Monday evening by a family member in the 46 hundred block of East North Street.
Homicide detectives are on-scene trying to piece together what happened.
The victims are a husband and wife in their eighties.
Police aren't being specific on how they were killed, but say the couple suffered obvious signs of trauma.
Neighbors describe North as a peaceful street. The red brick house, with the awning is now a crime scene.
Neighbor Malory McGurk says, "Well I'm shocked, and frankly scared."
"It's too close to home, I have two kids and a wife," said neighbor Eddie Cordova.
Those who live nearby were visibly upset.
"I could come home and walk into that," said Ken Kasborg, "It's sad, it's disturbing."
Police say for now, it's unclear when the violence occurred.
Sgt. Maria Hawke with the Tucson Police Department says, "It's very early. That is part of the investigation that's one of the things the detectives will be looking into, to determine who was the last person that saw this couple and how long they potentially would have been in the residence."
As for a possible suspect and motive, police are working to narrow down time frames.
"Anybody who may have had access to the home, anybody they may have had contact with and start narrowing down the list of possibilities from there," said Hawke.
Neighbors have a thoughtful message for the family of the deceased.
McGurk says, "I just wish their family the best, and our thoughts and prayers are with them."
Anyone with information, that could help police should call 911 or 88-crime.
