The Erongo police are investigating separate incidents of three people found dead this morning in homes at Mondesa, Swakopmund.
A fourth person is in hospital, in the intensive care unit.
Erongo police regional commander for community affairs inspector Ileni Shapumba confirmed that two men and a woman died.
“The one is a 17-year-old man, while the other two are yet to be identified,” he said.
Shapumba said the incidents are not linked to the rumour of drug-infused brownies making the rounds at Swakopmund, but it has not been dismissed.
Police investigations into the matter continue.
