A woman remains seriously ill in hospital after being shot in the head in a violent row in which her former partner and their daughter both died.
Hampshire Police said they believed the four-year-old girl was shot dead by her father, who also shot his 40-year-old ex-partner and then killed himself.
They think the man, 56, carried out the shootings as the woman dropped the girl off at their former home in Aldershot.
The woman was said to be "critically" ill in a London hospital.
Police were called at 1011 GMT on Tuesday to the terraced property in Church Hill, close to the main High Street.
Det Insp Darren Rawlings, of Hampshire Constabulary, said officers had been met with a "very traumatic" scene.
