Detectives were still on scene Friday morning at the apartment building, known as The Harris, where tenants tell NBC10 Boston this is very surprising.
"I came down to a whole bunch of cops, more cops outside," said Michael Dzialo who lives in the building.
"I don't quite know what to make of it, I mean a loss of life is absolutely tragic" said Fraser Simpson, another Harris resident. "It's very surprising and very different to anything I would have expected in this neighborhood."
An investigation is active and ongoing. Police are asking anyone with information to contact them.
