SAPD said there was evidence the man and woman, believed to be in their 30s or 40s, were living in the drainage ditch under the bridge. Police could not confirm if there is an abundant homeless population in the area, but officers say there are some homeless people who take shelter under bridges.

The man and woman’s cause of death will be determined by the medical examiner.
