North Carolina authorities are investigating the deaths of two people found in the front seats of a car where two babies were also found, shivering from cold Thursday.
At around 6 a.m., workers noticed the bodies of Destiny Wiggins, 24, and Devone Brown, 28, with apparent gunshot wounds inside the car.
Officers responded to the scene where they discovered that two children, toddler-age, were in the back seat of the vehicle, unharmed.
The children are currently at UNC Nash Healthcare where they receive treatment after being exposed to chilling cold weather for long hours.
Police deemed Wiggins and Brown’s deaths as “homicides.”
“I am asking for all family, friends, loved ones, and anyone who can donate to help us to bury my daughter,” Wiggins’ mother said on a fundraising page.
“She is a mother of 4 who was murdered today.”
