From Times Staff Reports

A man and a woman visiting a Long Beach apartment for recovering addicts were found dead early Thursday by the building manager, and police said they suspect the pair had overdosed on drugs and alcohol.

Neither victim was immediately identified, said Jana Blair, a Long Beach Police Department spokeswoman. She described both as white, the man 40 to 50 years old, the woman in her 30s.

The victims had for a few days been visiting a resident of the Clearview Apartments, where a sign out front declares, “This is an alcohol and drug free property.”

The resident of the apartment was not home when the visitors’ bodies were found, Blair said.
