An investigation by Vermont State Police is underway into the deaths of two people found inside a home Wednesday afternoon in Eden.
The bodies of the two deceased are expected to be taken to Vermont Chief Medical Examiner’s Office in Burlington for autopsies to determine the cause and manner of death, Vermont State Police stated in a press release Wednesday evening.
The names of the two people were not immediately released by authorities pending notification of their relatives and further investigation, the police statement added.
Police said they received a call a little after 2 p.m. Wednesday, and responding deputies from the Lamoille County Sheriff’s Department and a warden from the state Department of Fish and Wildlife found two people dead inside the residence on Route 100 in Eden, the state police press release said.
“Everyone involved in this incident is believed to be accounted for, and there is no identified threat to the community,” the release added.
State police said their investigation into the deaths was in the “preliminary stages,” involving several state police divisions, including its Major Crime Unit and the Lamoille County State’s Attorney’s Office.
