On 06/12/10, at approximately 12 noon, State Troopers from Troop E Montville received a call reporting two unresponsive people in a motor vehicle located in a wooded area of Route 2A in the Town of Preston. Arriving troopers discovered a Chevy Impala approximately 500 feet down a dirt pathway off of Route 2A.
Located inside the vehicle were a male and a female. Both subjects were pronounced dead at the scene. The initial State Police investigation determined that there appeared to be no criminal aspect in the deaths. Based upon the physical condition of each body, both subjects were pronounced dead at the scene.
The scene was secured by responding Troopers and State Police Detectives responded to continue the investigation into both deaths.

Both victims were transported to OCME for a post mortem examination scheduled for 6/14/10.
Preliminary investigation indicates no criminal aspect. Detectives are working collectively with OCME for positive identification of the victims and notification to next of kin.
