A woman and child have been found dead at a Logan home – shortly after a wounded man ran into a nearby supermarket.
Queensland Police were called to a Woolworths on Beaudesert Beenleigh Road at Bannockburn about 7.30am on Thursday following reports of a man had run into the store with a wound to his neck.
Subsequent investigations indicated the injured man had run to the location from a Belivah address and got hit by a car.
Police attended the home, where the bodies of a woman and child were found. Detectives remain at the scene.
The man is currently receiving medical treatment and will assist police with their investigations.
Police do not believe there is any ongoing threat to the community.
‘Investigations continue and there is no further information at this time,’ a police statement read.
One elderly neighbour told the Daily Mail the police had arrived outside the Belivah address at around 8.30am.
