A report in the Lakewood Scoop doesn't disclose the area of town but indicates that a visitor found them in the vehicle with the engine still running, and called police.

A source close to the investigation corroborates information in the Scoop article, adding that preliminary indications point to an intentional, predetermined act.

They reportedly were pronounced dead at the site, and a first responder required treatment for carbon monoxide exposure.

The Ocean County Prosecutor's Office reportedly has sent investigators to assist township police.

This is a developing story. More details as they become available.
