Two people were found dead Saturday evening when police attempted to search a Glendale home in a child pornography case, authorities said.

Detectives from the Phoenix Police Department’s Sexual Investigations Unit went to serve a search warrant shortly before 7:20 a.m., at a home near 59th and Peoria Avenues, said Officer Tiffany Smith, a Glendale police spokeswoman.

As police were entering the home, they heard a single gunshot, Smith said. A search of the home located one male and one female, both adults, deceased.

Smith said no one else was located inside the home during the incident. The Glendale Police Department was called to assume the investigation.  No details were immediately available, including information about the child pornography case.

The investigation is ongoing.
