Police on Friday identified the two victims of an apparent murder-suicide in a small mobile-home park in central Arkansas.

James Price and Denise Marie Hildreth, both 49, were found dead in the 2300 block of Hamilton Road about 1:15 p.m. Thursday, according to a news release from the Jacksonville Police Department.

The release lists Price as the perpetrator and Hildreth as the victim. Hildreth was Price's ex-wife, and the two shared an address in the mobile-home park, a police report shows.

A 4-year-old boy was at the residence when the deaths took place, police said.

Both bodies have been transported to the medical examiner's office for autopsies, the release states. The deaths are still under investigation.
