The suspect -- 22-year-old Raymond Boodarian -- is accused of scaling a fence onto the Encino property and then shooting and killing the couple during a struggle when they arrived home, Los Angeles Police Department Lt. Guy Golan told reporters Tuesday.

Police were first alerted by a resident who hadn't heard from Kaye and Deluca for several days, and found the bodies on Monday.

Los Angeles police say they are investigating their deaths as homicides but have not identified any suspects.
