A 42-year-old man, from Broadmeadows, was swiftly arrested at the scene.

He has subsequently been charged with murder.

He was remanded in custody and is due to appear at Melbourne Magistrates’ Court on Wednesday.

Homicide squad investigators believe the two men were known to each other.

The four were discovered by a relative and it is understood their deaths are not suspicious.

The two investigations are not believed to be linked.
