Fairfield police have released the names of three people who died in an apparent murder-suicide shooting on Saturday afternoon.
Police identified the shooter as Jason Eisenberg, 27, and the victims as Anthony Chambers, 41, and Brittany Quinn, 27. Eisenberg lived at a home in the 5200 block of Venue Drive with Chambers, Quinn and a 27-year-old man, police spokesman Officer Cleo Mayoral said.
Police believe Eisenberg shot Chambers and Quinn, then shot the 27-year-old man in the foot before shooting himself in the head, Mayoral said.

Eisenberg and Quinn had a common-law marriage that ended two years ago, Mayoral said. The two were also business partners but did not have any children together, Mayoral said.
When their romantic relationship ended, Eisenberg and Quinn engaged in a tense legal battle over finances and real estate assets, Mayoral said.

Quinn moved out of the home, but in December she moved back in, Mayoral said.
Tensions continued because of the pair's ongoing disagreements about property, assets and living arrangements, Mayoral said.
Chambers and the 27-year-old man who survived the shooting were friends of Eisenberg and Quinn and lived in the same house, but were not involved in the dispute, Mayoral said.
On Friday, Quinn served Eisenberg with a notice of a civil lawsuit regarding money she believed Eisenberg owed her, Mayoral said.
On Sunday, Eisenberg killed Quinn and Chambers and shot the 27-year-old man in the foot through a closed, locked bedroom door, Mayoral said.
Eisenberg then shot himself in the head, Mayoral said. Quinn and Chambers died at the scene and Eisenberg died at hospital, Mayoral said. Police recovered the murder weapon that belonged to Eisenberg, he said.
Police are continuing the investigation.
