KANSAS CITY, Mo. — Kansas City, Missouri, police found three adults dead in a house Thursday night and are investigating the deaths as homicides.

The officers found the victims inside the house with injuries that did not appear to be natural, Drake said.

It's unknown at this time how the three died.

Homicide detectives were canvassing the neighborhood Thursday night looking for people with information about the victims, Drake said.
