An investigation is underway after three people were found dead inside a Pompano Beach home late Wednesday.
The Broward Sheriff’s Office said shortly after 7 p.m. deputies arrived at the home at 330 S Golf Boulevard to conduct a welfare check. They made several attempts to contact those inside but received no answer.
Growing concerned, the sheriff’s office said they contacted Broward Sheriff Fire Rescue who made a forced entry into the home. That’s when three bodies with gunshot wounds were found inside.
All three appeared to have died as a result of their their gunshot wounds, according to sheriff’s detectives.
Neighbors said a mother, father and son lived in the home. Darrell House, who lives on the street, said he was a little alarmed.
“There was just police car after police car, a fire truck, it was crazy. I was shocked.”
He said the area is popular with Canadians who stay there during the winter.
Homicide investigators are now trying to determine what led to the shooting. The sheriff’s office said there is no threat to the community.
