Blood was found in the home's entryway when officers arrived on the scene.
"They backed away from that entry and continued their search around the house. They went around to the back of the house and from that viewpoint, they could see through the slider glass doors and they observed two adults down on the ground, unresponsive," Sgt. Griffin.
The victim's identities have not been released. Authorities say a woman and her two grown sons had been renting the 3,200 square foot home for about a year.
