Homicide detectives are investigating after a man and woman were found dead inside a vehicle in Brampton early Thursday.

Peel police were called to the residential area of Red Castle and Kershaw streets around 2:10 a.m. for a wellness check of two people inside a vehicle.

They found the pair suffering from gunshot wounds and both were pronounced dead at the scene, police said.

Police could not confirm if they are searching for any suspects at this time and were unable to provide details about the relationship between the pair.

"I can't get into the specifics as to what exactly happened," Const. Akhil Mooken told reporters at the scene Thursday.

"It is very early in this investigation. We want to make sure we get all of the details before we are able to share anything so as to prevent any misinformation," he said.

Mooken said the incident took place in front of a home in the area which had been taped off as police continue to investigate.

"There are countless homes with surveillance footage. Our investigators will be canvassing all of these homes to obtain any and all surveillance footage," Mooken said.
