Bodies of two men found inside U City apartment
The bodies of two men were found inside a University City apartment Thursday.
Univestiy City police officers had gone to the duplex in the 800 block of Pennsylvania to check the welfare of a 59 year old resident who hadn't reported to work. Police found his body inside his second floor unit, along that of a 77 year old man who lived on the first floor. Police say both men had apparently been stabbed to death.
There were no signs of forced entry into either unit, or signs of a struggle. Detectives aren't sure yet if anything was stolen.
Police are still in the process of contacting next of kin, so the victim's names have not yet been released.
Police say they are following some leads, but anyone with information is urged to call the University City Police – Bureau of Investigations at 314-725-2211 or CrimeStoppers at 866-371-TIPS (8477).
