A New Jersey mother and her own mother were fatally shot after at least one intruder broke into their home and committed a double homicide while the woman’s young son was inside early Wednesday, officials and neighbors said.

Catherine Nunez, 33, and her mother, Marisol Nunez, 54, of Willingboro Township, were both killed after a suspect or suspects entered through a first-floor window, the Prosecutor’s Office of Burlington County. said.

Both victims were found in an upstairs bedroom when officers responded to a burglary in progress around 4 a.m., prosecutors said. The two women were pronounced dead at the scene.

So far, no suspects have been arrested, although authorities believe it was “not a random incident” and stressed that the surrounding community is not in danger.

The gunman or gunmen fled before police arrived on the scene.

Neighbors told local media that Catherine’s young son was in the house at the time of the murders.

“We found out the child was under the bed while his mother was killed and the grandmother was already gone,” local Charlee Harris NBC 10 said.

Another neighbor, Glenda Sprauve, who lives next door, said the family mostly kept to themselves but were nice.

“He was cool, yet a very nice person. She was kind enough for me to shed a tear or two and then some. I couldn’t even sleep last night,” Sprauve told the station. “It hurts. It hurts. And I feel so bad for her son.”

Sprauve added that the Nunez family moved from Brooklyn at least several years ago, ABC 6 reported.

“It’s sad. It’s sad, especially in Willingboro. On our street, we don’t have that kind of thing,” Harris told the station.

Willingboro is about 20 miles east of Philadelphia.
