Colorado Springs Police: 2 dead near Hopeful Drive, homicide investigation underway

COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. (KRDO) -- Two people were found dead Wednesday morning and the Colorado Springs Police Department is investigating the incident as a homicide.

Officers are at a scene on Hopeful Drive, which is just south of Austin Bluffs Parkway near Academy Boulevard.

CSPD said a person called police around 8 a.m. after returning home and finding their two roommates dead. The roommates were a man and a woman, but their identities haven't been released.

Police said the two people had gunshot wounds, but their exact causes of death will be determined by a coroner. CSPD said at this point it's too early to determine whether suicide is a factor in the incident.

CSPD says this "appears to be an isolated incident" with no threat to the public.
