Three People Were Shot Dead in Lake Elsinore Murders, Sheriff's Officials Say

LAKE ELSINORE, CA – Three people who died in a Lake Elsinore home this week were shot, the sheriff's department reported Wednesday.

The victims, whose names are not yet being publicly released, were first found around 10:28 a.m. Tuesday at a home in the 31000 block of Wisconsin Street by someone who called police, according to sheriff's Sgt. Wallace Clear.

"Officers arrived within minutes and found three deceased adult victims inside," Clear said in a news release. "Investigators from the Lake Elsinore Police Department and the Sheriff’s Central Homicide Unit responded to the scene and assumed the investigation."

Those investigators have been at the location for more than 24 hours as of Wednesday, and authorities aren't releasing much more information about the case.

Sheriff's officials tell Patch that no arrests have been made, but no suspect information is available.

"This investigation is on-going and no further information will be released at this time," Clear said.

Ana Angeles, 41, whose home is nearby the scene, told the Riverside Press-Enterprise that people could be seen coming and going from the house late at night.

"There were a lot of homeless there," she told the newspaper. "There were always people coming in and out of that house."
