YPSILANTI TOWNSHIP (WWJ) - Authorities say a man and his sister-in-law were found dead in what's believed to be a suspected murder-suicide in Ypsilanti Township.

Police responded to a home on Rambling Road around 9:40 p.m. last Saturday after receiving a call about a suicidal subject. When deputies arrived and made entry into the home, they found two people dead.


Reports indicate the victims are 31-year-old Oswaldo Terraza-Chacon and his 19-year-old sister-in-law, Erika Veronica-Matilda Silva-Corona.

Police have not yet commented on how the pair died but say the deaths are considered suspicious. A domestic incident between the victims may have occurred prior to their deaths, according to police, which may be the result of a murder-suicide. An investigation is ongoing. 

Anyone with information is asked to call the Washtenaw County Sheriff's Office confidential tip line at 734-973-7711. Tips can also be submitted anonymously to Crime Stoppers at 1-800-SPEAK-UP.
