IRVINE – The Irvine Police Department is investigating two deaths at a home on Hexham, a tiny cul-de-sac in the city’s exclusive Turtle Rock Summit community.

A man and a woman were found with gunshot wounds inside the home, police said in a statement Wednesday. Their names and relationship were not immediately released by police.

“At this time, there is no indication of an outstanding suspect or danger to the surrounding community,” Commander Mike Hallinan said.

At about 3 p.m., investigators were waiting for a search warrant to be able to search the home. The coroner was also en route to the home.

Rachael Jeffy, 18, who was walking her goldendoodle dog, Simba, lives about three blocks from where the bodies were discovered. She heard a police siren in the neighborhood around noon and then received a phone call from her mom informing her of the shooting.

“It sketched me out,” Jeffy said, adding she is not aware of any other violent crime in the normally tranquil Turtle Rock Summit. “I’m a little nervous.”
