Greenwood Police officers were called to a home on the 600 block of Greenway Street for a welfare check that turned into an investigation at 10:17 a.m. Monday. This is inside The Villages at Grassy Creek subdivision, east of U.S. 31 and between Stop 18 and Smith Valley roads.
When officers arrived, they found two dead people inside the home, said Matt Fillenwarth, assistant chief of police.
