A San Diego neighborhood is facing a tragic loss after two adults and a child were found dead inside a home in the Lake Murray area on Wednesday, September 16. The three victims were discovered at a residence on Boulder Lake Avenue with apparent gunshot wounds, according to reports from CBS 8, KGTV, and The San Diego Union-Tribune.
Police said a concerned neighbor went to check on the household after hearing what she described as “loud bangs” the previous evening. According to The San Diego Union-Tribune, which cited information from San Diego Police, the neighbor entered the home and discovered the two adults in one bedroom and the child in another room.
The neighbor reportedly told authorities that the three victims were members of the same family and that the two adults were married. Her identity has not been publicly disclosed. San Diego Police have opened an investigation into the deaths and are treating the case as homicides. Authorities are also examining the possibility that the incident may have involved a murder-suicide, though investigators have not reached a final determination.
The identities of the victims have not yet been released publicly, and officials have not announced a possible motive. Investigators are continuing to work to establish the circumstances surrounding the deaths and determine exactly what occurred inside the residence.
The discovery has left the Lake Murray community shaken as authorities continue their investigation. Further information is expected as police work to piece together the events leading up to the deaths and provide answers to the family, neighbors, and wider community.
