Authorities are continuing to investigate the circumstances surrounding a call to a Danville home Wednesday evening in which an adult and two children were found dead at the scene in what the sheriff’s office has described as a possible murder-suicide.

The adult decedent was identified Thursday as 44-year-old Danville resident Nemanja Isailovic, according to the Contra Costa County Sheriff’s Office. The identities of the two juveniles have not been released.

Few details about the circumstances of the possible murder-suicide have been revealed publicly, with the sheriff’s office saying the investigation is still active.

The scene was first discovered by Danville Police Department officers, who responded at approximately 5:20 p.m. Wednesday to a home on the 100 block of Larkwood Circle in the south of town near Greenbrook Elementary School and the Iron Horse Regional Trail. Police entered the residence to find the three unresponsive people — Isailovic and two juveniles — who were then confirmed to be dead by firefighters, according to sheriff’s officials.

The sheriff’s office is continuing an active investigation into the case, with no additional information available as of early Thursday afternoon. They are asking anyone with information to submit tips via tips@so.cccounty.us or by calling 866-846-3592.
