Police Discover Two Bodies In Worcester

Two bodies have been discovered at a property in Worcester, according to police.

The bodies of a man and a woman were found by officers shortly after 5pm at Debdale Avenue, Warndon on 06 October.

The victims are believed to be in their 20's.

Police were responding to a report raising concern for the welfare of a woman at the property.

Her death is thought to be suspicious, while the death of the male was being treated as "unsuspicious", West Mercia Police said.

It is believed the incident was contained to the property and police are not looking for anyone else.

Both the man and woman are yet to be formally identified.

Detective Chief Inspector Neil Austin said: ""We are investigating the circumstances leading up to their deaths and would appeal for anyone with information to come forward."
