VALENCIA (CBS) — Three people have been found  shot to death inside a vehicle in the upscale and safe Bridgeport area of Valencia.

Officials say a woman found her husband and two others dead and called police.

Authorities said they received the 911 call just after 4:20 Friday afternoon.

Police are calling it a murder-suicide.

Investigators tell KCAL9's Jeff Nguyen that a 60-something man allegedly murdered his in-laws then turned the gun on himself.

They also told Nguyen the unidentified man left his wife a note.

The shooting took place in his driveway.

The man's mother-in-law was 90, his father-in-law 95.
