Two people were found dead in a Hebron residence in the early morning hours Friday, state police said.
State trooper Pedro Muniz said state police received a report of a disturbance at 50 Main St. in Hebron at 3:30 a.m. Friday. When they arrived, they made forced entry and found two people dead in an apartment.
The residence appears to be an apartment building with multiple residences, Muniz said.
Schools in Regional School District No. 8 announced they would be closed on Friday due to the incident.
The district includes students in grades 7 to 12 in Hebron, Andover, and Marlborough. Hebron Public Schools also said they would have a three-hour delay on Friday, according to a Facebook post.
Route 66, otherwise known as Main Street, was also closed between Loveland Road and Millstream Road for the investigation. The closure was reported around 6:20 a.m., and the road has since reopened, according to Connecticut State Police.
The Connecticut State Police Major Crimes Unit and Tactical Team responded to the scene.
The people who were killed have not yet been identified.
There is no threat to the public, Muniz said.
The scene is still very active. No further details have been provided.
