The bodies of two British tourists were discovered on a beach in Thailand today in what authorities describe as a "gruesome" crime scene. 

According to the Associated Press, the victims—a woman, 23, and a man, 24—were found on a Koh Tao beach. A blood-covered garden tool was found nearby, and Col. Prachum Ruangthong gave the Associated Press with the disturbing details of the discovery: 

"The man was chopped in the back and on the side of his head, while the woman was chopped in her face," he said. "It's very gruesome."

Maj. Gen. Kiattipong Khawsamang added that the two traveled to Koh Tao separately, but met while staying at the same hotel. From there, they ventured out to a bar together. 

Police have yet to identify any suspects.
