Police tape was up outside a Port Coquitlam townhouse on Tuesday.

Police were called to Davies Avenue near Hastings Street in the morning to investigate an incident.

The Integrated Homicide Investigation Team has now confirmed a woman was found dead inside the home.

Few details are being released, but neighbours say they heard two gunshots early Tuesday morning.

Investigators say they were only made aware of the situation when a man showed up at the Coquitlam RCMP detachment a few hours later.

He is now in police custody.

The relationship between the victim and the man in custody is not known at this time.
