Their identities weren’t revealed, but Bassingthwaite said they were a man and woman in their 80s who lived in the area.
Bassingthwaite said investigators believe they knew each other, but couldn’t confirm how. He said there were no outstanding suspects, and there were no threats to safety in the neighbourhood.
The homicide is investigating, and will be looking into the history of the neighbourhood and relationship between the victims.
Police are asking if anyone has information to contact them.
