Denver \u2013 Four people were killed in a shooting at a house in Aurora, a city in the US state of Colorado, with the suspect still at large, police said.<\/p>\n

On Sunday, the Aurora Police Department (APD) said it received a report of a shooting at the house downtown at roughly 2am, reports Xinhua news agency. <\/p>\n

Officers found four adults \u2013 three men and one woman \u2013 dead from gunshot wounds when they arrived three minutes later.<\/p>\n

The suspect was identified as Joseph Castorena, 21, supposedly the domestic partner of the woman killed in the house.<\/p>\n

A relative of the dead woman told local MSNBC 9 news channel that it was an ambushed shooting. <\/p>\n

The suspect hid in the house and opened fire when the victims returned from a party.<\/p>\n

Shortly after the shooting, a reverse 911 alert was issued in a 1.5km radius for all residences to shelter in place, while officers searched the neighbourhood in the dark.<\/p>\n

The APD classified the investigation as a homicide case but warned the suspect was dangerous and might have a gun. <\/p>\n

The Colorado Sun reported that a restraining order had been issued earlier in the week, barring the suspect, 21-year-old Joseph Mario Castorena, from coming to the home or contacting his domestic partner, who lived there. <\/p>\n

Police searched Castorena\u2019s home a few blocks away from the site of the slayings but did not find him, the Colorado Sun reported.<\/p>\n

Police used drones to search for Castorena at sunrise and were looking for him in the immediate neighbourhood on Sunday.<\/p>\n
