Two people have died after a serious incident at a residence on Salt Spring Island.

At around 5 p.m. on Monday, June 1, Salt Spring RCMP were called to a home on Fulford Ganges Road for reports of a serious incident.

Upon arrival, they found a 48-year-old man who had died on the property, and a 41-year-old woman suffering from serious injuries. She later succumbed to her injuries.

Soon after, the Vancouver Island Integrated Major Crime Unit took over the investigation.

According to VIIMCU Cpl. Chris Manseau, investigators are not looking for any suspects, no charges are anticipated, and no one else was injured as a result of this incident.

“The BC Coroners Service is also conducting an investigation to determine how, where, when and by what means the two individuals came to their unexpected deaths,” reads the statement from Cpl. Manseau.

Police say the public is not in any danger at this time and no further information will be released by authorities.
