Janetta Harris, 22, and Jason Koester, 28, were among those killed Tuesday evening, the Detroit Free Press said.

The home was owned by Harris' father, family members said. Koester was a tenant in the building, his sister said.

Investigators are trying to determine a motive for the shootings, Detroit Police Sgt. Eren Stephens said, noting she could not confirm reports robbers, posing as police officers, shot the four in a robbery attempt.

A neighbor, Elodia Ortiz, said police told her "it was a fake police home invasion," the newspaper reported.
