Two people were fatally stabbed and a third injured Saturday evening in an apparent domestic dispute in Collingswood.

Sources familiar with the case said the stabbings occurred in a single-family home in the 100 block of East Narberth Terrace. Police found two females dead when they arrived on the scene at 5:02 p.m., according to a statement from the Camden County Prosecutor's Office.

Shortly after 6 p.m., officials from the coroner's office arrived at the house, which was decorated with green Christmas lights. A suspect was in custody, authorities said. The condition of the injured person was not immediately known.

A spokeswoman for the prosecutor said no further details would be released. She declined even to specify whether the two people killed were adults or children.
