Two people were found dead by police Thursday in an apartment near Lowe’s in Coeur d’Alene. Police said they were called around 5 p.m. to the Falls Creek apartment complex at 2827 N. Julia St., north of Lowe’s Home Improvement Center, at the behest of neighbors who smelled a suspicious odor coming from a unit whose occupants hadn’t been seen in a while. “When officers made entry, they found two deceased persons,” Coeur d’Alene Police Detective Jared Reneau said. “When they made sure no one else was inside, they secured the scene”/Ralph Bartholdt, Coeur d’Alene Press.
