NEW YORK (AP) -- A housekeeper has discovered a couple dead in their bed at their quaint Brooklyn home, bloody from head wounds.
Police say the bodies of 50-year-old Mark Schwartz and his 48-year-old wife, Christina-Maria Petrowski-Schwartz, were discovered at around noon Wednesday. The housekeeper called 911.
The couple were pronounced dead at the scene. The medical examiner is determining the causes of their deaths.
Police say they believe someone else killed the couple. Investigators found no weapon but did recover shell casings. Police say there was no reported history of violence between the couple or at their home.
The couple lived in a single-family home in the Marine Park neighborhood, an area residents call ``the suburbs in the city.''
