Deceased identified as sisters . . .
An ongoing death investigation in Carmel has revealed two bodies, both female, were found shot in the head.
Emergency personnel were dispatched to Sunrise on the Monon Apartments, just off Westfield Boulevard south of 99th Street, Thursday morning on a report of a cyanide gas odor.
Reports indicate neighboring apartments were immediately evacuated.
Police entered the apartment, identified as the source of the odor, and found two women, identified as Vanessa Parris, 37, and Christalia Bostos, 33, both deceased. Bostos and Parris are believed to be sisters and both were dentists practicing in the Indianapolis and Carmel area.
Investigators believe both women had been dead for several days which created the odor originally reported as cyanide gas.
Police say there was no threat to community and believe the incident to be a murder-suicide.
Hamilton County Coroner John Chalfin confirmed an autopsy was conducted on Friday, but has not released an official cause of death.
