Both have yet to be formally identified, police said.

Superintendent Christine McDonald, Commander, Burwood Police Area Command said it was "too early to say" if the deaths were "domestic-related," or if what happened was a murder-suicide.

Supt McDonald said the man had ankle injuries and it was possible he had jumped from a unit.

Police are still trying to work out who the pair are, but said a woman was seen on CCTV walking towards the apartment this morning.

"We don't know who they are at this stage," she said.

Police have found a weapon.

Supt McDonald appealed for anyone who saw or heard anything to contact police.

Crime scenes were set up and officers are investigating.
