A gun was recovered, but it is not known if it was the weapon used in the fatal shooting of two men and a woman at 337 North Ash.
Two women were taken downtown by a detective for questioning about the suspicious deaths.
"They are familiar with occupants inside of the house," said Wichita Police Cpt. Hassan Ramzah.
Additional residents of the house are also being interviewed. A motive is not known.
The home was converted into several apartments. A 47 year-old man called police to check the residence about noon Saturday.
"The victims were found in the upper portion of the house," Ramzah said. "It appears some type of disturbance may have occurred inside the residence sometime earlier in the day."
