Authorities are investigating the deaths of two people whose bodies were found in an eastern Pennsylvania row home.

The Reading Eagle reports that police were called to the Reading residence on Saturday night.

Assistant Chief Deputy Coroner John Hollenbach said 79-year-old Mary Branford was pronounced dead at the scene just before 10 p.m. Saturday.

Hollenbach said her 52-year-old son, Johnny Branford, was pronounced dead at the scene soon afterward.

Autopsies are scheduled on the bodies. Police have not said whether they consider the deaths suspicious.
