POLICE have seized a firearm and are questioning a 34-year-old man after a young woman died of a gunshot wound at a Melbourne house.
In a bizarre twist, the bodies of two women were found in a house in the same street soon after the shooting, but their deaths are not being treated as suspicious.
Paramedics were called to a house in Meadowbank Drive in Sunshine North about 9am (AEDT) on Friday to treat a woman for upper body wounds, but were unable to enter until police declared the scene safe.
By the time they reached her in a rear bedroom of the home, the woman had died.
Detective Senior Sergeant Stephen McIntyre said the Sunshine North man, who is known to police, is believed to have known the woman but was unable to say how.
"The exact extent of their relationship is yet to be determined," Det Sen Sgt McIntyre said.
He said the man was assisting police and no charges had been laid.
However, police are in possession of a firearm.
Police have not revealed how many shots had been fired or how many wounds the woman, who is yet to be identified, sustained.
Det Sen Sgt McIntyre said he was unsure how long paramedics had to wait before they were able to enter the house.
"The scene had to be made safe prior to their entry," Det Sen Sgt McIntyre said.
"Given the fact that there was a firearm involved in this incident they obviously had to wait for police to attend."
The homicide squad is investigating.
Not long after the shooting, the bodies of an elderly woman and a middle-aged woman were found inside another house in the same street.
Police said their deaths were unrelated to the shooting.
