Police said they found a fourth person, later identified as the possible shooter, on a couch with a self-inflicted gunshot wound and a handgun nearby.
Casselberry Police Chief Larry Krantz said investigators were still trying to sort out what may have led to the shooting.
“We just don’t have an understanding as to what led to this incident that happened this morning,” Krantz said. “It’s just unknown to us. It’s a very much a tragedy.”
Casselberry police said their preliminary investigation points to a case of murder-suicide.

At a news conference Tuesday, Chief Krantz said officers had been to the condo last week after a woman called, saying she was concerned because she thought that her husband may have bought a gun.
The chief said officers later learned the man had purchased a firearm legally, but he hadn’t made any threats against anyone.

“She had never even seen the firearm,” Krantz said. “What she had heard was that he was supposed to be trying to sell the firearm to someone else.”
Detectives said they were still in the process of trying to notify family members before releasing the names of those involved in the shooting.
