Winnipeg police provided an update on their investigation into a shooting on Langside Street Sunday morning that left four people dead and one critically injured.

A man and a woman were pronounced dead on the scene while three additional victims were found and taken to the hospital in critical condition. Police say one man who was taken to the hospital has since died as a result of his injuries.

An adult female also succumbed to her injuries on Sunday evening, with the remaining victim — a 55-year-old man — still in critical condition, said Winnipeg Police's Major Crimes Division inspector, Jennifer McKinnon on Monday.

McKinnon confirmed the deceased as 34-year-old Crystal Shannon Beardy, 33-year-old Stephanie Amanda Beardy, 29-year-old Melelek Leserie Lesikel, and 41-year-old Dylan Maxwell Lavallee.

Police Chief Danny Smyth said the investigation is in its "early days," and investigators are prioritizing finding and identifying the suspect first. While a motive remains unclear, all victims were all part of residents of a multi-suite dwelling.

Winnipeg residents remain looking for answers as police work to determine what happened leading up to the shooting.
