UPDATE: Boston police said the person found dead inside a home owned by Rep. Ayanna Pressley’s husband died of a gunshot wound.
Boston police are investigating the discovery Saturday of a dead body that was found at a property that is owned by the husband of Congresswoman Ayanna Pressley of Massachusetts.
Police spokesperson James Moccia told CBS News Boston on Saturday that officers were called to a house on Malta Street in Boston’s Mattapan neighborhood at 1:52 p.m. “for a report to investigate a person.”
When they arrived, they found the person dead, Moccia said.
Moccia did not have any further details and said the homicide unit is handling the investigation. A Boston police cruiser was seen outside the home Saturday evening and it was sealed off with red crime scene tape.
On Sunday, police said they had no additional information to add.

According to property records from the city of Boston, Pressley’s husband, Conan Harris, is listed as the owner of the Malta Street home. The property has an assessed value of $919,000.
The two-story, seven bedroom house was built in 1910. Pressley and Harris do not live at the home. It’s a rental property that’s currently for sale. The asking price is $1.15 million.
WBZ-TV reached out to the real estate agent handling the listing, but she has not yet responded with comment.
“The Congresswoman extends her deepest condolences to the impacted family,” a spokesperson for Pressley said in a statement Saturday night.
Pressley, a Democrat, was first elected to Congress in 2018, when she defeated longtime former Rep. Michael Capuano in a primary.
