Police aren't describing the two victims or saying how they were killed.

But neighbors tell us that the victims are a woman around 30 years old and her ten year old daughter.

The neighbors say the woman's two younger sons are safe and accounted for.

Police say the family member discovered the bodies earlier today then called 9-1-1.

Neighbors say it was the woman's sister who made the sad discovery after she couldn't reach them on the phone.

Police are providing few details.

One neighbor tells us she saw police respond to the woman's townhome last year after a domestic dispute.

"It's real weird. Especially with a woman and child. It's sad right there. Real sad," said Tisha Gonzalez.
