SURREY – The three bodies discovered in a house in the Fraser Heights area of Surrey were most likely a result of murder-suicide after identity of the victims were revealed Tuesday

Homicide investigators believe three people found dead in a Surrey home Monday afternoon were killed in a murder-suicide.

“It appears so,” IHIT spokesperson Sgt. Timothy Pierotti said in an interview when asked if that’s what happened. “We can say that we believe there’s no outstanding suspects, anything like that, or any outstanding murder weapons.”

The three people have not yet been identified by police, but people laying flowers and visiting the Fraser Heights home Tuesday identified them as husband and wife Leo Li and Tiffany Li and their adult son Daniel Li, reported CBC News.

 “Investigators will continue to be in the area speaking to neighbours throughout the day,” Pierotti said. “Preliminary evidence suggests there is no outstanding suspect, though we are not ruling out any investigative theory.”

“It’s a very decent family, and they liked the life very much,” said Juan Zou, who had dropped by. “They enjoy the life and Canada’s life.”

Zou said the family ran a tutoring business, something others in the neighbourhood also told CBC.

The three bodies were found around noon Monday inside the home on 112 Avenue near 156 Street by Surrey RCMP. They turned the case over to the Integrated Homicide Investigation Team.

Zou said Leo and Tiffany both graduated from Peking University, also called Beijing University. They met when they both worked at Metrotown in Burnaby.

Tiffany opened a tutoring business and taught French. 

“She was a really nice teacher,” said neighbour Connie Kang. “Always smiling. Helped people. Very friendly to neighbours, to all the students.” 

Leo started tutoring, too, as did their son Daniel who attended university in Victoria, reported CBC News.

“There was no history at that residence of domestic violence or anything to that effect,” he said.
