South Carolina town is rattled following the deaths of an elderly couple within their home, which authorities are investigating as an isolated incident, however, many questions are yet to be answered.
According to police, both in their 70s, the couple was found after a welfare check after being reported missing when they were not seen by their neighbours in a couple of days.

The circumstances have been held close by the investigators with the only assurance that the citizens life wont be at risk anymore.
The house in a usually quiet neighborhood has already been cordoned off as the detectives go on to investigate more and wait the outcome of the autopsy.
According to friends, the couple was private but nice, so they avoided the society and they were not part of the intense local conflicts.
