An investigation is underway in Haverhill, Massachusetts, after two people were found dead inside a home over the weekend. The discovery left the neighborhood shaken.
Police were called to a home on Broadway Street at about 5:45 p.m. Sunday for a well-being check, the Essex County District Attorney’s Office said. When they arrived, a man and a woman were found dead of apparent gunshot wounds.
“I’m hearing people scream and cry and running down the street,” said Emily Long, a neighbor. “I feel really, really bad, especially hearing what people have to say, or what they are yelling and crying, and I understand the pain. I feel really, really bad.”
The victims haven’t been publicly identified pending notification of the family.
The case is under investigation by the district attorney’s office and the Haverhill Police Department.
