Two dead bodies were found in a Phoenix trailer home last night, and the cops suspect it to be a murder/suicide.

Phoenix Sergeant Steve Martos says police were called to a trailer in the 2600 block of East Morrow Drive about about 7 p.m. after an elderly man found the body of a woman inside the trailer.

The man who found the body is the homeowner’s brother —  he’d gone to the trailer to check on the 53-year-old man. The woman whose body he found, police believe, was that of his brother’s 56-year-old girlfriend.

Detectives continued to search the trailer and found the body of the homeowner.

elderly brother — have not been released. It’s also unclear who killed
whom — and how.

Martos says he’ll provide further details when they become available.
