A Bridgeport family says their aunt
and uncle were found dead on New Year's Eve, but the cause is unknown.
Rafael Vasquez, 40, says his
56-year-old aunt Maria Diaz and 65-year-old uncle Luis Zamot were both found
dead in their home on Calhoun Avenue - after he had already lost four family
members in 2020.
The family is waiting for the state
medical examiner to determine the cause of death. Vasquez says he wonders if
they might have died of COVID-19, but knows it would be extremely unusual for
two people to pass away simultaneously of natural causes.
State and local leaders are calling
on the public to help Vasquez's family.
