Screaming leads to grisly discovery of stabbed homicide victims inside Azusa home

- Share via
Authorities who were responding to reports of screaming inside a home in Azusa over the weekend arrived to discover a grisly scene, the Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department said.
When deputies arrived to a home in the 300 block of North Twintree Avenue about 2 p.m. Saturday, they found a man outside suffering from “numerous apparent knife wounds” then went inside and found two people dead, the Sheriff’s Department said in a news release. The call was reported as a potential domestic incident with people screaming.
Though authorities have not released the identities of the victims or the man they detained, neighbors told KTLA-TV that a family of three lived at the residence — two parents with their adult son.
Anyone with information about the incident is encouraged to contact the Sheriff’s Department Homicide Bureau at (323) 890-5500.
