The medical examiner will determine how the victims died

A man and woman in their 20s were found dead, apparently beaten, in their Queens home late Monday, police said.

The victims, 21-year-old Franco Montoya and 28-year-old Beatrice Morris, both lived in the Flushing Avenue home in Ridgewood, though their relationship wasn't clear.

Police responding to a 911 call reporting a past assault inside the home found the victims, unconscious and unresponsive, shortly before 10 p.m. 

Both victims had blunt force trauma to their bodies, police said.

The medical examiner will determine how they died.
