70 year old man and woman found dead
A man and a woman, both aged in their 70s, have been found dead at a property in Dorset.
Dorset Police said they were called to Anthony Avenue in Poole at 11:35 GMT on Tuesday.
They found the bodies of two people who knew each other. Their next of kin have been informed and the coroner has been informed.
Det Inspector Ian Allan said it did not appear anyone else was involved in the “very sad incident”.
“Officers are carrying out inquiries to establish exactly what happened and the scene has been cordoned off to conduct a thorough investigation,” he said.
“We are trying to establish a timeline of what happened, but are currently looking at the period from the Christmas holidays to today.
“There will be an increased police presence in the area and if anyone has any concerns or information we would encourage them to contact officers from their local neighborhood policing team.”
