Police responded to a welfare check at 75 Gotham Hill Drive in Marshfield around 9:19 p.m. on Tuesday, Plymouth County District Attorney Tim Cruz said.
Upon arrival, officer found a married couple, later identified as Carl and Vicki Mattson, suffering from multiple stab wounds. The couple, both 70, were pronounced dead at the scene, Cruz said.
Authorities have since issued a "Be On The Lookout (BOLO)" for an individual believed to be behind the stabbing, known as 27-year-old Christopher Keeley. Cruz said Keeley was acquainted with the Mattsons and therefore this was not a random act of violence.
Keeley should be considered armed and dangerous might suffer from mental health issues, Cruz added. He is said to have left the house in a black 2019 Jeep Wrangler, bearing Massachusetts plates 7490HT, and could still be somewhere in the Marshfield area.
