Three senior citizens were found dead in a bloody crime scene inside a New Jersey home Friday after a postal worker discovered a horror-movie-style warning note taped to the front door, authorities announced.
The Burlington County Prosecutor’s Office confirmed the grim discovery at a Mount Holly residence, located about 25 miles east of Philadelphia. The mail carrier alerted police after finding the ominous note featuring the message “9-1-1 Inside” alongside crude drawings of two frowning faces with X’s for eyes, according to crime scene photos.
Neighbors Shocked by Grisly Discovery
Neighbors described hearing an unusual amount of police activity before learning about the triple homicide. “I understand that an incident of this nature is deeply concerning to our community,” Mount Holly Police Chief Clifford Spencer said in a Facebook statement obtained by the New York Post, adding his “thoughts and prayers are with the families and loved ones.”
Authorities have not released the victims’ identities pending family notifications, but neighbors told reporters the home belonged to two brothers and their sister, all believed to be in their sixties. “They were very nice. They didn’t bother anybody,” neighbor David Babcock told an NBC affiliate.
Mystery Surrounds Potential Suspect
While the crime scene reportedly contained significant blood evidence, officials stated “there is no threat or danger to the public,” suggesting investigators may already have identified a suspect with connections to the victims. Autopsies were scheduled for the weekend as the investigation continues.
Some neighbors expressed surprise that multiple people might have lived at the address, with one anonymous local telling the Post they only ever saw one man coming and going from the property. The discrepancy has added to the mystery surrounding this disturbing case that has rattled the quiet Burlington County community.
