Police say a 40-year-old man and his 13-year-old daughter were found dead inside a parked black SUV outside of a home, where they lived, in the 3800 block of Forest Grove Drive around 1 a.m. Tuesday.

Sources tell ABC7 News that the girl's mother was inside of the car, but managed to escape and call police.

Authorities say the incident appears to be domestic in nature and that there is no threat to neighbors in this community.
