Authorities were called around 3 p.m. to the 1700 block of S Gevers after a person reported to have found a man, woman, and two dogs dead inside a tent in a wooded area, police said.
SAPD said the man and woman showed no apparent signs of trauma or foul play and appeared to have been in the early stages of decomposition.
Authorities said they believed their deaths may have been caused by carbon monoxide poisoning since it appeared they had used plastic tarps and heat from a fire to stay warm.
