POLICE are investigating the deaths of a woman and her son as a possible murder-suicide after officers made the grim discovery of two bodies in a Central Coast home.

The woman, a well known identity in the local sporting community and her son, believed to be aged nine, were found in their Wyongah home, near Wyong, just before 2pm after neighbours reportedly heard a woman’s cries for help.

Police confirmed “no other parties are being sought in relation to this incident”.

Forensics were still at the scene after dark.

A neighbour said the family kept to themselves.

“We only got here in March but they’ve always been pretty quiet,” a neighbour said.

“I’ve heard them have a few fights occasionally but nothing serious, I didn’t think.”

The man said he and his wife were at home at the time of the incident, but didn’t see or hear anything until they saw police putting crime scene tape around he premises.

“You never expect something like this on a quiet street like this, but when I saw the tape I knew something bad had happened,” he said.

“You don’t want to hear about something like this happening— especially if there’s children involved,” his wife added.

The scene on Kilpa Rd in Wyongah was blocked off by forensic vans and police tape.

A couple is understood to have bought the house in 2001 a number of years before the arrival of their son.

Tuggerah Lakes detectives and forensics crews are searching the property.

Officers dressed in white plastic overalls were seen looking for any clues that could explain the deaths.

Investigations are continuing and a report will be prepared for the Coroner.
