Three people were found dead in a North Side apartment, police said.

San Antonio Police Chief William McManus said three men were found Tuesday morning at La Paloma apartment complex, 102 W. Rampart Drive.

"A passerby looked into the sliding door that was closed, and happened to notice two bodies on the floor," McManus said.

Each of the bodies appeared to have gunshot wounds, McManus said, noting they may have been shot at around 7:30 a.m.

After some time, the person who found the bodies notified apartment management, who called police around 3 p.m.

Officers arrived at the complex and discovered the three bodies, who appeared to be in their 20s and 30s.

Authorties confirmed the men were dead inside the apartment, but then went back outside to wait for a judge's approval to search the premises.
