NEWTON, Mass. (AP) — A couple celebrating their 50th wedding anniversary were stabbed to death, along with another family member, in what law enforcement officials said was probably a random attack.
The bodies were found in a home in Newton when the couple failed to arrive at church Sunday morning, police said. Police said they are worried that the killer or killers may be still at large, and residents in nearby neighborhoods were urged to remain vigilant.
“Two of the individuals were celebrating a golden wedding anniversary this weekend. As you can imagine, this would be tragic on any day. To have family gathered for this kind of a celebration makes it particularly tragic,” Middlesex District Attorney Marian Ryan said Sunday evening.
Preliminary investigation indicates that there were signs of forced entry and that the victims were stabbed, Ryan said.
There was an attempted break-in about a half-mile from the victims’ home early Sunday, but it’s unclear if the two crimes were related, Ryan said.

Two new supermarkets popped up in the eastern part of Massachusetts last week, according to reports.
The Fresh Market, a chain of supermarkets based in Greensboro, North Carolina, opened two new locations, one in Mansfield at 280 School St. and another in Framingham at 84 Worcester Road, according to the Boston Business Journal.
Previously, The Fresh Market only had one Massachusetts location in Hingham at 11 Essington Dr., MetroWest Daily News reported.
The Fresh Market will offer meals such as in-house smoked pit BBQ, Businesswire reported.
“The Fresh Market really shines during the holiday season, and we are thrilled to bring The Fresh Market experience to Mansfield and Framingham,” Jason Potter, the CEO of The Fresh Market, said in a statement to Businesswire. “The Fresh Market is the fresh food destination for our guests, offering high-quality products and convenient options that inspire delicious meals and create memorable occasions.”
