Overview

  • Prosecutors identified the deceased as David Lunn, 54, and said his 48-year-old wife remains hospitalized in critical but stable condition.
  • The pair were found Friday morning inside a work-style van at 107 County St., where police say they had been living for a few weeks.
  • Rehoboth firefighters reported no presence of carbon monoxide in the vehicle after the initial call referenced a possible CO incident.
  • Investigators noted a possible history of substance abuse for the couple, and two dogs from the van were placed with Rehoboth Animal Control.
  • The location is the same property where 18-year-old Kylee Monteiro’s remains were found in August, and authorities have not indicated any link between the cases.
