According to police, an 11-year-old boy from Washington state discovered his parents dead in their kitchen on Halloween night after they had stabbed and shot each other.

According to a press release from the Cowlitz County Sheriff’s Office, the boy called 911 around 6 p.m. to report that his parents had been killed at their home on the 4700 block of Olympia Way in Longview, which is located in southeast Washington near the Oregon border.

Deputies rushed to the house and discovered a man and woman unconscious on the kitchen floor. Paramedics pronounced both victims dead on the scene.

Police identified the couple as Juan Antonio Alvarado Saenz, 38, and his 39-year-old wife Cecilia Robles Ochoa. Their son was at home at the time of the incident, but he did not see anything because he was in another room playing video games and wearing earbuds, police said.

Autopsies revealed that Alvarado Saenz died from multiple stab wounds to the chest, while Robles Ochoa was shot and stabbed. Detectives discovered a knife and a gun at the scene. Alvarado Saenz allegedly stole the firearm from his workplace, leaving his employers unaware until after the incident.

Law enforcement concluded that the couple was “assaulting each other,” but they couldn’t determine who was the “primary aggressor.” Cops interviewed several people who allegedly knew the couple and told them that Alvarado Saenz and Robles Ochoa had “relationship issues” and were planning to divorce.

According to GoFundMe, they leave behind three children.

“We have tragically lost 2 members of our family and we are looking to fund their funeral and help keep the family and their three kids on their feet,” according to the fundraiser. “Please donate whatever you can to the family. Thank you. “God bless.”

The incident is still under investigation.
