SCOTTSDALE, Ariz. (AP) - Scottsdale police say evidence at the scene indicates that two young adults found dead in a residence died as a result of drug use.

Police say the Maricopa County Medical Examiner’s Office will determine causes of death for 25-year-old Veronica Birk and 24-year-old Brock Haman, who were described as acquaintances.

Police say officers making a welfare check at the request of an out-of-state relative found the bodies in a bathroom and that they apparently had been dead for some time.



Police say their investigation continues and that no additional information is available.
