OAK PARK (WWJ) -- Two young people are dead, and a third is wounded after an early morning shooting in Oak Park.
"Very sad, a mother arriving here in Oak Park, finding out that her son was shot; part of a triple shooting," WWJ Newsradio 950's Charlie Langton reported.
The shooting happened just before 5 a.m. Monday, at a home along Coolidge Hwy., just south of 9 Mile Rd.
Langton said the two dead were an 18-year-old woman and a 19-year-old man , found inside the house.
The third shooting victim, a young woman, was taken to a hospital for treatment of non life-threatening injuries.
Quite a few people gathered at the scene, Monday afternoon.

There is no known motive at this time, but investigators said it happened during some sort of house party.
"None, not at this time," Oak Park Police Chief Steve Cooper said. "Like I said, it was some kind of celebration or gathering that was going on, and apparently something went awry, and brought us here to where we are right now."
According to Davains Green, whose said his 19-year-old son DaShaun died in the shooting, the hosts of a party had asked several men to leave.
He said they left without any trouble, but came back shooting.
"Why them guys came back and did that, I have no clue," Green told WWJ's Jon Hewett and other reporters. "But I heard it from the person that found my son dead that they never got into it with the guys. They just asked them to politely leave."
"They left...and came back later that night and shot the house."
One neighbor told Langton she didn't see what happened, but heard a spray of gunfire.
"I don't know; it just kept 'buh-buh-buh-buh-buh-buh-buh-buh-buh-buh-buh-buh-buh' — like that. Fast, like a machine. I can't tell you no more," she said.
Officers found at least 38 bullet casings outside of the home
There have been no arrests, and there is no description of any suspects at this time.
The Oakland County Sheriff's Office is assisting Oak Park Police in the ongoing in investigation.
