The motive, exact time of the shooting and exact number of guns used in the shooting are still being determined, Norman said.
Milwaukee ABC affiliate WISN reported that it obtained court records that show that three of the six victims' names appear on a witness list for a pending homicide case in Milwaukee County Court.
When asked if that could be a reason why the victims were targeted, Norman told reporters that he believes it is unrelated to the incident, but that authorities are "looking into all angles."
The Milwaukee County Medical Examiner's Office identified the victims as Charles Hardy, 42; Caleb Jordan, 23; Javoni Liddell, 31; Donald Smith, 43; Donta Williams, 44; and Michelle Williams, 49.
Three of the victims lived at the residence, according to records from the medical examiner's office.
Acting Milwaukee Mayor Cavalier Johnson urged anyone with information in the case to come forward.
"It's time for that person to step forward, to come up, say something," he said during the briefing. "We can't have a city where somebody can go and pull the trigger and kill somebody, and then go sit on somebody's couch. We can't have that."
