Bodies of man and woman found in Halesowen flat
Detectives are investigating after a man and a woman were found dead at a flat in Halesowen.
The bodies were found in a block of flats in Bournebrook Crescent early on Friday morning.
It has not yet been confirmed how the two people died.
West Midlands Police were unable to say whether officers believe anybody else was involved but Detective Inspector Laura Harrison said there was not thought to be any risk to the public.
No arrests have been made.
Det Insp Harrison said: “An investigation is underway to find out what has taken place.
“No doubt this will come as a huge shock to neighbours and the local community.
"But we believe this is an isolated incident and there is no threat to the wider public.”
It is not known how old the man and woman are and they had not been formally identified by Saturday morning.
Post mortems are due to take place on Tuesday to establish the cause of death.
Police officers remained at Bournebrook Crescent, which is next to the M5, throughout Friday after being called to "concerns for the welfare" of the people in the flat at 6.40am.
Councillor Alan Taylor, who represents Halesowen South, was saddened by the news.
He said: "I'd like to show my condolences to the family and friend.
"It's a tragic thing and we don't know the cause yet, but to lose someone so suddenly is awful."
Anyone with information is asked to contact police quoting log 502 of 25 March.
