A California man who reported his wife and her mother missing in September has been charged with their deaths, police said Monday.
Phuc Vo, 40, is charged with two counts of murder in the slayings of his wife, Tho Ly, 40, and her 74-year-old mother, Que Tran, the San Pablo Police Department said.
Authorities have not located the bodies of the women and have not disclosed how they were killed.
Vo filed a missing persons report on Sept. 13, 2023, saying that both women had gone missing a week earlier. He said they left their home in a 2017 Honda Fit to travel to Southern California following a family argument, police said.

Investigators said the information about the women traveling to Southern California couldn’t be “corroborated.”
During the investigation, detectives “discovered inconsistencies” in Vo’s statement about the womens’ vehicle. He was seen driving it on Dec. 5, 2023 in Oakland, authorities said.
