Police are investigating a suspected double homicide after two people were found shot to death inside an East Harlem apartment on November 5th.
Officers responded to the Gaylord White Houses near East 104th Street and Second Avenue around 8:30 p.m. for a wellness check after the son of 55-year-old Elsa Espina reported that she had failed to show up for her next home health care job.
Inside the unlocked apartment, police discovered Espina and 66-year-old Elias Severino dead from gunshot wounds to the head. Severino, who was battling cancer, was reportedly found tied up. Investigators believe the victims may have been dead for some time. No firearm was recovered at the scene.
Authorities have not announced any arrests or identified a suspect as the investigation continues.
