A 43-year-old woman and a 6-year-old girl were found slain in Riverside County and authorities are looking for the woman's husband in connection with the killings.

Sheriff's Deputy Craig Roberts says the pair were found in their home in Perris at about 8 a.m. Saturday.

A statement from the Sheriff's Department says deputies are looking for 52-year-old Michael Barber—the woman's husband—who left the scene in a tan or gold Nissan Maxima.

A 10-year-old girl was found unharmed at the house.

Authorities did not immediately release the identities of the victims or say how they were killed.

Perris is about 70 miles southeast of Los Angeles and 15 miles southeast of Riverside.
