CALGARY- Police are investigating after two bodies were found in the northwest community of Evanston.
Officers were called by a neighbour to the 200 block of Evanspark Circle just before 1 p.m. on Thursday.
When they arrived, they found a woman and a boy serious medical distress inside a home. Both died at the scene.
Nobody else was found inside the home, and police say the father, and other children have been safely accounted for.
“I heard loud voices earlier. I was loading the truck, and I went back inside,” says one neighbour. “When I came back out, all the police cars were here.”
After speaking with witnesses, police began searching for a vehicle that was seen leaving the scene. A man driving the vehicle was pulled over on the highway near Didsbury around 3:30 p.m. and was taken in by RCMP for questioning. He was later transferred to the Foothills Hospital.
Investigators are trying to determine if he has any connection to the deaths.
The Calgary Police Major Crimes Unit has also been called in to investigate, and officials say they had no prior dealings with the family.
