Law enforcement arrived to do a welfare check around 1:00 p.m. when they found the bodies.
People who live in the neighborhood have come home from work to see the crime tape, dozens of detectives and helicopters overhead.
One woman said she didn’t know the family, but she is a nurse, so the news of the deaths hit her hard.
“If kids are involved, it really affects a lot. I’m not even sure how old the kids are. But the kids. It’s really hard, because you have kids yourself,” she said.
Investigators are not releasing the identities of the five people who died pending notification of next of kin, and we do not know more about what led to this apparent murder-suicide or how the victims were killed.
