Man, Woman Dead In Apparent Wayne Murder-Suicide: Police​

WAYNE, PA – Radnor Township Police and Delaware County authorities are investigating what they believe is a murder-suicide that occurred in the Wayne section of Radnor.

Police said a man and woman were found dead in a home on the 200 block of Highland Avenue the evening of Wednesday, Jan. 31 after being called to the home by a neighbor who said they had not seen anyone at the house in about a week.

When police entered the home, they found the man, believed to be in his 20s, and the woman who is thought to be middle aged, dead in the home's first floor.

Without confirmation from the Delaware County Medical Examiner's office, police believe the deaths are the result of a murder-suicide and said residents in the area need not worry about a killer on the loose.

Police suspect the victims are a mother and son, but they are waiting for the ME's office to confirm their identities.

Several firearms were found in the home, police said.

The Delaware County Coroner's Office did not have any releasable information as of Thursday, Feb. 1.

Police expressed sympathy to the victim's families, friends, and neighbors.

Delaware County officials and Radnor Detectives are investigating the incident.
