UPDATE JULY 27: The Clark County Coroner has identified the two children as 4-year-old Christopher Fox, III, and 1-year-old Gianna Fox. Both were from Henderson. The cause of death for both is still pending the final results of the autopsy.

Henderson police responded to the 700 block of Calamus Palm Place, near Galleria Drive and Gibson Road, in reference to a medical emergency at about 6:30 p.m. on Monday.

The childrens' deaths appeared to be suspicious in nature and are being investigated as homicides.

The name of the juveniles will be released by the Clark County Coroner’s Office.
