A man and a woman are dead after an incident on Sherburn Street on Monday.
Police were contacted about a domestic incident on the 500 block at 2:08 p.m. and found the pair “in medical distress.”
Officers gave the two people emergency medical care until paramedics arrived. Both were transported to hospital in critical condition and later died from their injuries, the Winnipeg Police Service said Tuesday.
The WPS homicide unit is investigating.
“There are no suspects outstanding, and investigators do not believe there is any danger to the public,” a news release said.
A police spokesman said it was too early in the investigation to determine whether one person is suspected to have slain the other and then died by suicide, or whether each person killed the other.
Police tape was wrapped around the front of a three-storey duplex on Sherburn Street as well as an adjacent house Tuesday afternoon.
One of the duplex’s front doors appeared to have been kicked in. Two WPS officers sat in a cruiser watching over the scene.
The WPS asked anyone with information about the deaths to contact homicide investigators at 204-986-6508, or Crime Stoppers anonymously at 204-786-8477 (TIPS) or online.
