Police have found two bodies at a house in Leicestershire.
Officers found the bodies at an address in Leicester Lane, Desford, at about 10am on Thursday, October 28.
Police were called out because neighbours were concerned for the occupants’ welfare.
Officers attended and found two people – a 69-year-old man and a 79-year-old woman – inside.
They both had significant injuries.
An investigation is being carried out into the circumstances surrounding of the deaths and the events leading up to the bodies being discovered.
