Two people were found dead in a home in Forward Township and it is unknown at this time what caused the deaths.
Officers were called to the home to do a welfare check and when they arrived they had to break in the door to get into the home. They found a father and son both dead in the home and the mother was found alive in another room.
According to Forward Township Police Chief Travis Stoffer, the woman was having trouble breathing and was taken to the Jefferson Hospital.
Police do not believe carbon monoxide poisoning caused these deaths and no foul play has been suspected. The son in the family was sent home from work earlier in the week to be tested for the virus. His boss asked for his welfare check. So the police think it could be covid related deaths.
The Medical Examiner and Allegheny County homicide detectives are investigating.
