NORWALK - Three men were found dead in the backyard of a Norwalk home early Thursday morning, authorities have said.

Norwalk Sheriff's Department responded to a rescue call in the 12000 block of Portugal Court just after 3 a.m.

Although unclear who exactly discovered the bodies, authorities have said that at least two women and two children were present at the home when they responded.

At least one of the men was found in a swimming pool. There were no obvious signs of trauma, however officials are calling the deaths suspicious.

“We don’t have a lot of information at this time. We suspect possibly some kind of narcotics involved but we are still investigating further,” Lt. Charles Calderaro said, as reported by KTLA 5.

All three were declared dead at the scene.

Additional details – including the names of the victims – have not been released.
