On Wednesday afternoon, the Integrated Homicide Investigation Team (IHIT) said one person was a victim of homicide. The circumstances around the other death are still being examined.
IHIT said the deceased knew each other.
An evidence tent could be seen in front of a house on Seaton Avenue, and forensic investigators were seen combing a neighbouring home.
