Man and woman found dead in suspected murder suicide at a home in beachside Melbourne suburb

Two bodies have been found inside a home in a beachside Melbourne suburb.

The man and woman were discovered in a property on James Street in Mordialloc, in the city’s southeast, just before 11am on Thursday.

Photos from the scene show SES crews assisting police as a crime scene was established on the residential street. 

The pair have not yet been formally identified.

Neighbour Jade Lindsay said she heard a ‘blood curdling scream’ and ran outside to find a ‘distressed’ woman who had discovered the bodies. 

‘It was a really distressing, blood curdling scream that really scared me because it was so prolonged,’ she told the Herald Sun. 

‘It’s a pretty distressing thing to hear… obviously that lady who screamed was very distressed.’

Ms Lindsay said a man and a woman, believed to be aged in their 30s, were pacing up and down the pavement outside the home.

She saw the man stop and put his head in his hands. 

Victoria Police said they are not looking for anyone else in relation to their deaths.

‘The circumstances surrounding the deaths are yet to be determined,’ police said.

‘Officers have cordoned off the area and a crime scene has been established.’
