Deputies found a 23-year-old woman and 34-year-old man, both of Pontiac, dead inside the home with multiple gunshot wounds.

 A witness who pulled into the driveway told deputies that he hit a suspect with his car as they fled on foot. The two suspects were able to flee the scene. A K-9 unit attempted to track the suspects, but the search was ended when it was determined they had entered a vehicle.

Detectives were able to determine who the suspects were and arrest them Sunday morning. A semi-automatic handgun was also recovered.

The male suspects, a 21-year-old and 17-year-old, are at the Oakland County Jail and charges are pending.

Authorities said that the shooting occurred during a marijuana purchase.
