Police found one man dead and a woman with a serious head injuryEddie Mitchell
A 75-year-old man was confirmed dead at the scene, though his cause of death is unknown.
A 90-year-old woman with a serious head injury was also found at the scene, prompting authorities to take her to hospital via air ambulance.
Sadly, the unidentified woman died on May 3.
Authorities are treating the matter as unexplained and have begun enquiries into what took place at the address on College Road, Bexhill.
Residents or anyone with more information have been encouraged to contact the police online or by calling 101 and quoting serial 599 of 02/05.
An increased police presence is expected in the area, as authorities search for leads in the case.
The incident is the second death to rock East Sussex in just a month, after a woman fell to her death at Brighton Beach.
Emergency boats and a coastguard helicopter were scrambled after a woman was spotted in the water.
Despite the best efforts of the emergency services, rescue teams were unable to save the woman in her 20s.
Sussex’s police force have also just finished an intensive tribunal where PC Olivia Clinton was found to have groped two of her fellow officers.

Clinton was found to have told one officer – known only as PC B – that “I bet you’re a big boy aren’t you?”
PC B had assumed that Clinton was his partner, since she had groped him from behind.
Later that same evening, a drunken Clinton put her hand on his crotch and said: “You’re really fit aren’t you?”
Clinton, who has now resigned from the force, also groped a female colleague’s breast and described her as “really sexy”.
She has now been barred from ever serving as an officer again.
