Police Find Brutal Murder Scene In Roseville

ROSEVILLE (CBS13) — Roseville Police responded to the 100 block of Vernon Street early Sunday morning and found a man lying in the road covered in blood.

"That led us back to a residence on Birch Street where we found a deceased female. We can say that there was an association between the male and the female," says Rob Baquera of the Roseville Police Department.

That man, who is in his 50s, was taken into custody on suspicion of murder.
