A couple was found shot to death Thursday morning inside their Kenton home, according to state police.

The man and woman, both of whom were pronounced dead at the scene, were located in their bedroom inside the locked house in the first block of Cooper St., said Master Cpl. Gary Fournier, a spokesman for the Delaware State Police.

A relative found them about 11 a.m. Thursday when he went to check in on his in-laws and bring them breakfast, Fournier said. He called 911 after finding the couple, he said.

The names and ages of the man and woman were not released by police, and Fournier called the killing as "isolated incident" with "no concerns for the community."

Details on the circumstances of the shooting, however, were not immediately released.
